D&D Animated Story - Copper the rogue bullies the elderly

- Story from a 5e game I was in. Copper continues to prove that rogues are horrible people.
This was a super quick video that I've been wanting to make for a while, and finally was able to get to now that my other project is complete. Man I forgot how much flash sucks.
There will be an actual animation coming soon, I promise!
Also this is my first time trying out premiers. Woo!

"Where are you?"
"I'm at curios."
"What do you mean, you're at curios?"
"I mean I'm at the curio store."
"Why are you trying to buy soup at a curio store?"
"Screw you!"
"..."
"Ink is a kind of soup, right?"
"Sure."
Ah, good times
You missed like 40% of the joke.
...Is this from that Code Geass parody thing?
@@Adam-cq2yo yes
@@richardhammer303 Hell yeah.
I once played an old man gunslinger based off of Clint Eastwood's various roles. When our thief was caught stealing from the adventurers guild we worked for (yeah I know) we were hired to go find her. Turns out we were being followed by other guild members and they were going to kill her if we found her and didn't. In order to distract them while the others snuck the rogue out, my character told the adventure guild members super long boring stories. With a performance check to intentionally annoy/bore them, rolling moderately high, I bored half of them until one of them yelled "I can't take this any more!" and pulled a knife on me. I then proceeded to give him the most horrible death stare the world has ever seen that drained the color from his face and made him drop his knife. For a second the whole bar was still as I just stared at him with grim eyes, people in my party being about ready to draw weapons on them...
and I just went back in to my boring stories.
Lmao
'And then I fired, and I missed..."
no fair your basically Clint Eastwood already and now Itachi
Why have I not thought of that as a distraction yet. 10/10 idea
"didn't your mother ever tell you it's rude to interrupt someone when they're talking?"
When you roll to steal and you get a twenty
Feel the power of C R I M E
You've been hit by, you've been struck by a smooth criminal!
:P
The moral of the story:
Don't steal from someone until you know why they're a jerk.
What are you, neutral good?!
@@lostbutfreesoul Even chaotic neutral characters should have morals. If you don't you're evil.
@@thediethrower1803 Not necessarily. I am playing a true neutral character and he believes in necessary evil. He does not care about morals and views that the ends do sometimes justify the means. He is purely pragmatic in nature. A true neutral hero is way less moral than a hero but not quite in villain territory yet. Good tries to find another way but he just takes the quickest and most efficient means of taking down an enemy. Rather than forgiving his enemies he makes sure they don't ever become a threat again. Lacking morals may make you a sociopath but it does not make you evil. Evil is actively trying to hurt others or being malicious. Lacking morals means you lack the knowledge of right and wrong and go with your gut.
Hm... Interesting. So, I see a cute elf all alone in the forest. I go over and rape her... Neutral? Chaotic neutral?
I mean it probably would depend on the motivations I suppose? If the goal was to hurt and make the girl unhappy, It would be evil. If it was a case that the pleasure and enjoyment was valued as worth the girls discomfort, where the discomfort was a unfortunate side effect. Then it would be... Neutral? I mean the point was not to make ruin the elf's life or anything.
Or would there have to be a larger goal behind it. Say the dude had a philosophy that its the right thing to do, to spread your... family... genes whenever you have a good mating opportunity, for you know... Better chance of some good offspring or whatever.
@@zhoupact8567 Actually that is just an evil act. I said necessary evil. That is unnecessary. Neutral means your just more pragmatic and less heroic than the good guys. True Neutral is the most interesting alignment if played correctly. You are not dedicated to balance or any ideals you only do what needs to be done. You are usually better at making hard choices than a good person. That would be more chaotic evil. Chaotic Neutral basically just makes you Captain Jack Sparrow so wild and unpredictable. I mean Chaotic Neutral just does whatever they can to cure boredom.
Maurelle followed Zombieland Saga before even it was a thing
Maurelle invented Zombieland Saga
I am 147% ok with more D&D content
You rolled a one,it turns out you hate it
Agreed
@@ayindephulgence4950 Good thing they are a halfling and have Lucky! Sadly they just roll another one....
Wait! He forgot his bardic inspiration! (calling zedrin a bard for entertaining us).
I’m 101% okay with this being a regular thing.
So... are we going to ignore Copper took a dump in on of the crates?
was wondering when someone would point that out
I sure want to ignore that...
@@Zedrinbot I honestly thought that just meant she found shit
Taking a dump would take some serious time unless she was in dire need and barely cleaned(or didn't clean at all) herself, so i'd like not to think about it...
It's like Scanlan.
As a dm one of my favorite things to do is give my bad guys a backstory, not just the big bad guys... im talking the random goblin ambush, the maurading orcs... everyone, and the only time the party gets to here these bavkstories is when one makes the mistake of learning that particular enemies language... queue the shakesperean orcs, ALAS POOR... UH... LINE! yorik brah, YORICK! I KNEW THEE WELL!... Billy the goblin, who was on his first ever raid with his daddy, getting slaughtered, the party not understanding why a goblin just stopped doing anything while the rest of the ambushers kept doin thier thing, then said goblin monologueing... alas these dark days shall be mine... the young perish... while the old linger, shaman walks over, Billy's death wasnt your fault Tim... goblin looks at the shaman, No parent should have to bury thier child...
Which leads to the party Barbarian whose the Only one who speaks goblin saying the best line all session... (the entire time shes was all RAGE RAGE HAHAHAHA) Im sad now...
Ah im a monster :3
@Jobba always think about the Grey area but consider what your players want, some groups appreciate the moral ambiguity of what if what we are doin isnt right, and some prefer no grey area and want to always be the heroes, me, i just like having enemies have their own goals and motivations
The first goblin ambush of our party led to one of us slicing one of the goblins perfectly in half and him becoming our black market merchant.
Rois void
Idk about calling goblin slayer lawful good. The premise of the story pretty much is that he's always right. He's literally the only person in the world who can see goblins are problems in a world goblins are causing all degrees of problems. It's like a NPC whose thoughts are seconded by the gm by default, not sure if that sort of character can really have alignment.
@@iliketurtles2531 I would say he very much has one. Goblin slayer hates goblins. Gobline slayer knows they are a problem, but really only for those too poor to merit the consideration of those in power. Yes, that is still a lot of people, but they are a lot of people who are underrepresented because they lack the funds to get their voice out there. Out of sight, out of mind. Anyway, goblins, so far, are objectively evil. But until he started partying up his methods, while very effective, were perhaps even more cruel and vicious than the goblins. But on the other hand he does show concern for others and does go out of his way to help those he believes he can save. So let us say neutral edging towards evil at the begining and after his friends change his views he starts tipping the other way.
In the begining he had a very rigid way of thinking and doing things. He didn't compromise what was effective for anyone. So he had a lawful turn of mind. But as his friends, and especially priestess, work on him he starts to loosen up and be willing to judge things by the situation. So I would say he is becoming more chaotic. My guess if this trend continues he would be some form of chaotic good. But at current he is hovering around neutral.
Poor Archibald, I hope they made it up to him. He honestly deserves so much better.
well, the campaign got terminated due to scheduling conflicts over a very extended period of time, so pretty much he and everyone in the party were lost as the city got ripped from its dimension and stuck in Shadowfell. :V
Bad End.jpg
Oh...
Sounds like that girl who used skeletons should go with the flow, and necro the daughter and have her body dance around in the city. Perhaps somehow make her cry for her dad to save her. That could be interesting. >:3
No he doesn't. Having a sad backstory isn't a get out of jail free card for being an asshole. It's not even like his bitterness was directed at just adventurers either. He had no idea old lady! Copper was an adventurer, but was still a dick to her. The guy may have experienced hardships making him sympathetic, but at the end of the day he wasn't some misunderstood tragic figure.
When did being a dick become a crime? Everyone is a dick from time to time. And disliking a group for your experience with them is shit, that is something a lot of people can relate to. For its also such a basic and normal thing that we all fall into to some degree.
This character has a better reason for his distaste than most I would say. When I look around in the real world people go full donkey over far lefss.
" Oh Deary Me, I Seem to Have Lost My marbles " XD
I have a story about an old man it's quite long so I apologise in advance. My husband joined a game that I'm playing in for a one off session. Our DM, as lovely that he is will happy throw everything off the rails for a funny idea.
My husband brought an old befuddled wizard named Fizban (Dragonlance fans can probably guess where this is going), anyway he joins/follows/stalks the party. Me, a dragonborn ex cultist(cult if the dragon) druid and our bard start being mean to this old guy. Everytime he went to cast a spell the DM would roll a dice to determine what spell would happen. Fizban tried to cast fireball but instead cast fly. Me being sick of this bullshit wild shaped into a giant spider, tried to web him and missed. In response Fizban used suggestion to tell me to change back and stop attacking him which knocked out his concentration on the the fly spell. He landed right on top of me damaging us both. I could have looked the other way (by counting to ten) at the mind control but falling on me was unacceptable. I lost my temper and tried to punch him in the face. Rolled a nat 1 and missed. Luckiest nat 1 I ever rolled. The DM said after the game that had I got him he would have tranformed into a dragon.
He did change into a dragon by the end of the session scaring the crap out of everyone but it wasn't because of anyone in the party, 2 cragcats tore his human form in half. From that day I decided that I should be nicer to old people, just incase they are a dragon in disguise.
What kind of dragon was he?
@@leirawhitehart1236 Platinum Dragon, his name is Paladine by the way, also the original is a god, so try to be on your best behavior.
Bahamut. Yeah, I could guess that one. Yeah, that is part of the idea behind hospitality. You never can be sure who that old bum really is. Maybe it is jist a bum, maybe an agent of the crown, and maybe it is a god.
When the Npc's backstory is more tragic then yours
Did anybody notice she kept picking up the same marble XD
Lol yea
Otherwise one would waste a lot time on unimportant animation.
Thats how to save a budget
I thought it was a joke to make old lady copper look more stupid
Way to prove Archibald right...
0:19
Ok...i THINK i get the reference...a Dragonborn reading "the lusty argonian maid"?
Nice job...nice job
(would have been even better if it was a dark elf tho)
I don't get it, n do I even want to know
@@AMPMASTER10 ok
@@AMPMASTER10 skyrim reference. That book is all over in the elder scrolls and while it never says anything directly, the implications are quite dirty. Heating "ovens" so as to put "loafs" in them. "Polishing" spears.
The dragonborn is the main character of Skyrim.
@@jacobfreeman5444 I heard of Skyrim and I know that the Dragonborn is the main character, but what is a argonian
Once, my party successfully convinced a horde of goblins that they were health inspectors to check out their base. On a tour of the tower, they told the party exactly where the treasure rooms were. 👍
lol the marbles joke was so unexpected it got me
Good stuff man! It's always cool seeing dnd stories like this. I would definitely like to see more if you ever wanted to do one again
@Thomas Clark that's wild man lol
Hey atleast they kept the gold!
One time the rouge in the game i was playing drank the sovereign glue
I like these animated-comics as opposed to full animation.
I mostly listen than watch anyway. Food for thought.
Great work
Am I the only one who noticed the shape of key #3m
she stole his Toyota
That was really funny, i hope we get to hear more of your D&D stories
How to Rogue 101: lesson #36, Never steal in front of your party.
Oh man I love playing arcane tricksters, stories like these are exactly what I look for.
The sleep idea and execution was absolutely genius.
Oh, a premiere? Hope I don't forget to watch this after the fact then >.
WoW O_O ....just when I was starting to hate Archibald and root for Copper -_- .
I can relate with the cleric. My current character is a goliath barbarian/bard. His name is Rock'koom and you'll be hurting all too soon.
I understood that reference...
*heard the marble joke* i need to learn myself again how to spread madness.
copper should teach me owo
edit: did copper do sumfing good to the shopkeeper later?
Unfortunately the campaign ground to a halt when schedules misaligned to the breaking point. After my computer broke, it was cancelled, so to directly answer your question, no.
arw too bad... @@GeritzMusic
That is so sad 8'D
Ah scheduling. The leading cause of death for campaigns that make it past session 2.
Honestly, this was a cool and effective use of ball barrings
This is a great backstory for an angry shopkeeper! I mean, just having an angry shopkeeper for the sake of having one is kinda boring, but this is great!
Need more of these! Love your content overall, but who knew you had such an awesome storytelling talent!
0:38 Michael jackon's thriller.
The face you gave her is perfect, also if you want to do more videos like this then by all means I love these types of stories
That's definitely a great story to remember. Stuff like this is exactly why I love and play D&D!
Man, ball bearings are the source of so much mischief in dnd
I’d love more of these D&D stories.
I was soooo hyped bc i love channels like this and thought i had found a new one. The fact that your channel isnt 150 of these makes me sad. Subscribing anyway and looking through your old stuff
I will literally just watch any channel with DnD videos. Idt there can be enough considering DnD stories can be from any edition adding flavor due to rules plus Dms all having their own flow that can make games super interesting.
Geezus! Did she give the money back? How terrible!
That’s some S grade material right there, many enjoys and I thank you cat man for helping me. I love you.
This is hilarious! I'd love to hear more stories from your adventures
Me: *looks at the title* Well, this is the most rogue thing ever
187% sure that I would deeply enjoy more dnd content
At first i just read "Copper bullies the elderly" in my recommended
Holy cow that zombie land saga joke caught me off guard
I'm in the middle of a campaign with my Elven Hunter, Skoffin. And... it's turning quite insane.
Well that went dark at the end. Here I thought he just some grumpy old man who just shit on everyone.
"Coppers a Rogue -.....and a little shit!" My PCs life xD
This was actually really great, I hope to see more of D&D Stories in the future!
Wow.... That.... Got dark real fast
you can't go into the rouge life with a conscience. take what you can, give nothing back.
I got play an Arcane Trickster now called Tommy :) Yeah :) Tommy :) That's a good name :) ha ha :)
I don't know what it is, but when you put animation to stories like this they are entertaining enough to watch.
Yet, if someone was to come up to me and start rambling about what happened in their games I would often just get annoyed....
Keep animating and telling stories, it surprisingly works.
God, I want a series about this!
Especially
WWF cleric halfling girl
And
Idol singing Necromancer
Annnnnnd now to share this everywhere. I am in love this all of this.
I'm sure others have said it, but I hope we get more.
This is some mad captain William energy.
"Adventurers". More like Bandits.
Reminds me of a paladin in our group who decided the poor blind beggar girl had too much gold in her begging pan and would make a great meat shield.
More of these please. Dnd stories 8/10 times are usually pure fun.
Sounds like a wonderful group.
0:18 the lusty argonian maid
Nice taste, good read.
There definitely needs to be more of this
"Why does he hate adventures so much?" Well why would he not? Most adventures are giant assholes.
Lishna is a dragon born fighter. yeah, goodluck catching the arcane trickster if the trickster really didnt want to be caught. Dunno why she was worried about the snap in half.
I CLEANED MY SCREEN FOR 10 MINUTES BEFORE I REALISED THAT ALL OF THIS WAS PART OF A VIDEO
ohhhhh, that's why I recognise the name...heh, glad I ran into the channel since I lost track of the name of that comic before getting the ones I was already reading through the archives of finished up
Love your animation style
I've no idea who you are and the rest of your channel looks semi lewd, but I look forward to more dnd animations from you because your animation style is great and hilarious.
we need more D&D stories, this was wonderful
as a DM, 100% sure that DM made that up that backstory on the spot to make the rogue feel bad
Nope, actually I know the full reason, he revealed it to me after the game was ended prematurely.
*everyone* in the town didn't like adventurers (something we all had realized), and there was a big plot reason behind it (and it had to do with all the shit going down in the game)
I want more dnd stories
That was so much fun! Keep it up, you gained a subscriber
Please make more of these type of videos, I'm a huge fan of this type of stuff. :D
Wow an upload!
Now that my other project is done I can actually work on stuff that can actually go on youtube :V
The marbles bit got me
Liked instantly upon "lost my marbles."
I LOVE that animation!
Undead back up dancers? I gotcha
*Grabs a Red Marker*
Lets do this
*One week later News Report*: And sources say the Necromorph outbreak had begun when some young man came attempted to raise an army of undead back up dancers
its funny because you know the dm probably changed the old mans story to make the rogue feel bad...
he probably hated adventurers because they stole from him numerous times, and then the dm is like, lets make him feel bad. gj dm, we like you :)
nah. Said in the other comments, already know the full backstory myself, and it relates to literally the entire town.
The entire city hated adventurers and it's cause the last group that went through the town before our party did did a lot of evil shit (murder being a common one).
During one of my D&D games, we were fighting the town's guards after some suspicious behavior, and throwing acid balls at the evil mayor's face. The guards were particularly easy to take down, especially because no one likes working for the mayor. One of my sister's characters, who is a huge half orc, decided to lift up one of the guards, and toss him into a near by well.
that was probably one of the best take downs we ever did in that party
Need more stories like this. I enjoyed it.
Great story! Thanks for sharing it!
Moral of the story: sometimes there is a reason for some people to be unfriendly...
You know the only good thing to do is to "help" him see his daugther again or maybe since all the problem started because of the shop you could destroy it and the source of all his problems will be gone
Yes more! Love a good old d&d story
I love it and that shopkeep and his backstory are going to come into play the next time the adventurers in my game goto a shop.
That was fun. Would listen to more
The lusty argonian maid, i see you
Me 5 years ago: My first time playing was a cleric who loves his necromance but he can't use undead magic. He still collects corpses. What is my job is?
Me now: And I think to myself I was a holy undertaker, who sells corpses to necromancers for a price yass
A corrupt priest who sells cadavers and forms an attachment to a necromancer. I can only imagine the god that let you get away with that.
This reminds me of the time while doing a 5e premade session, we infiltrated a camp of cultists and kobolds dressed as fellow cultists, the elves disguised with a spell. We managed to egg on a drunken cultist named Steve to attack the kobalds, causing a distraction for us to save prisoners and escape. It was wild from start to finish!
I LOVE MAURELLE just because the concept reminds me of my charchter who was mcr with undead back up dancers
And this is why I stopped being theify with my rogue character. DM kept guilt tripping all my theifing attempts
That old lady got some balls.
These are some interesting characters
This was fun to watch
See! This is why sometimes it's really not worth it to be jerks to people who are also jerks, cause sometimes people are jerks for reasons.
Doesn't make it right to be a jerk either way, but if you do try to be a jerk back, well now there are two jerks instead of one now id'n there.
Ah yes the old, make the thief feel bad for steal from someone that doesn't deserve it.
that was good. awesome job
Need more of this 🤣
