Still though. Usually these types of situations have the skeleton or whatever give the character the information they need but more likely they don't know it or maybe they wouldn't be in this situation.
Idk mate, if I knew how to undo a curse as a magic user I would not just *keep* it cursed until I died at some point by the curse, even if I can't do it I'd know at least 20 other people who might be able to.
One of our party members was a scarecrow We found a tooth necklace, and wound up just giving it to him As it turns out, it was extremely cursed, and it targets the brain/mind *something our scarecrow did not possess*

There's a reason I don't want to play a bard, nor a worshipper of Slaanesh, as nobody will ever want to hear Anything from me ever again, and I'll be paying their therapy sessions for a Long time

@@omargoodman2999 One would argue that the one who wills the staff to be taken ie. the caster of command undead is the one the curse would be passed to, as the controlled undead is simply the means by which the staff was taken.
@@nicholaskehler9169 OK, but then what *is* "will"? By all accounts, the phenomenon we label as "will" is nothing more than a perception of the very surface-level of automatic processes which we have no perception of; only access to the results. In other words, our brains run a bunch of calculations and procedurally figure out a course of action, but it's all the biochemical equivalent of a mechanical process, nothing more than a very complex chemical reaction. There's no real "agency" or "decision" being made, just a marble being run through a sorting device with a bajillion criteria before ending up in one of a few dozen or so different outcome options. And our "conscious awareness" is only a self-recursive neural circuit constantly refreshing itself on the state of those outcomes, but with no direct access to the underlying sorting. In other words, "free will" is an illusion created by a combination of slight time lapse I'm different parts of the brain and inaccessibility of the entire brain to the part which generates the experience of "self-awareness". So it would be like saying that if you build a device that "repeatedly grabs what's in front of it" and I hold the cursed staff within reach of that device such that the device grabs the staff, that qualifies as *you* willingly taking the staff because you willingly built an extension of yourself which indiscriminately takes whatever is in front of it and, as such, universally accepts any consequences thereof even if you hadn't previously been aware of them. Philosophically and logically, this is structurally the same as giving an irresistible command to another agent to arrange their thoughts and decisions in such a way that they reach the conclusion they now "willingly" accept the staff and the curse associated with it.

If this happened I’d strive to recruit the skeleton to the party as a camp NPC. Like Withers, except instead of resurrection powers the dude’s just got god-tier sass.
My party was in a dungeon to join a cult and the other people were trying their hardest to beat the puzzles but I was continuously trying to eat them all
I'm just imagining the cute scenario of a wholesome wizard or cleric finding this same skeleton, it giving its warning, and then the caster using Speak with Dead (assuming it's needed) and ask: "Do you want help getting down?"
after watching these shorts for months i just noticed the N64 in the background, one of my favourite consoles with one of my favourite games, Ocarina of Time
Reminds me of someone casting speak with dead to ask a corpse in a dungeon on how to escape it and the corpse was like "bruh, I died because I didn't know that"
i see 3 solutions here A: take the skeletons hand and it holds the staff while you cast Or B: cast mage hand and carry the staff around like that or C:Glue a stick to the staff hold stick cast with staff while not touching it
This for some reason reminds me of this one time, me and my friend were playing “dnd” but it was really just a big joke and we found this skeleton It was depressed and trying to kill itself We consoled it somehow and it gave us a chest, me being a wizard got excited when i got 2 spells we made on the spot called bone barrage, each bone did a set amount of damage and what i rolled would be how many bones were shot THE SECOND SPELL SUMMONED THE SKELETON TO FIGHT FOR US AND HE WOULD USE THE ROPE TIED TO HIS NECK LIKE A WHIP OR IF YOU KNOW OF DELTARUNE RALSEIS SCARF OR SOMETING Man i wish i could continue to play dnd with him but he doesn’t want to play dnd anymore, it was all online btw
Wizard: command undead! Skeleton: you ain't getting this staff without enjoying some alone time with this meathook. Money Wizard: follow me to the auction in town!
this story came from a viewer on my Discord - if you want to share your own, link is in my channel links. I promise no (minimal) curses
reminds me of the "how the f would i know" answer that imprisoned skeleton in the flooded building gave from one of your previous heritage posts XD
My ears are gone, you lied about no curses
We have the same sword
Plot twist:
The curse only makes the Wielder paranoid about the Item being cursed, but has no other effects
@@yamato9753 amazing idea
I guess the Wizard wasn't the only arrogant guy to want a cursed staff.
At least he's good enough to warn others off from repeating his folly.
@@Axius27just bring the skeleton along and let them use it until the curse is broken.
@@gratefulgamer7907Ainz?
To be fair, there wasn't a skeleton to warn this guy.

Still though. Usually these types of situations have the skeleton or whatever give the character the information they need but more likely they don't know it or maybe they wouldn't be in this situation.
If he knew he couldnt undo the curse he wouldn't have taken the staff, he more than likely found out about the curse after youknow... the hook came in

Take the skeletons hand and let it hold the staff while you're the one casting
plus then you get to hold hands with a skeleton

Was not prepared for the punchline 😂😂😂
Wear the skeleton like a guitar on your back, then whenever you need to cast, just turn around and face the skeleton towards the problem
Put the skeleton pelvis deep in your backpack and let him be your artillery buddy.
*scribbles furiously*
don't mind me just taking notes
I love how the skeleton has been there for lord knows how long, and still has a sense of humor about it.
That is a very articulate skeleton
The curse cannot be broken; only passed on to another, willing recipient.
*Command Undead:* I _command_ you... to "willingly" take back the staff.

"Can I have the skeleton join the party?"
That is a perfect use of in game sarcasm. 😂😂😂
This made me laugh so hard, I almost woke my kids up in the other room 🤣
_To qoute an old man talking to a certain sarcastic skeleton_
"You idiot, you dont have an ass!"

"Cool, cool." *breaks skeleton's arm at the elbow, and wields the staff by wielding the skeleton's broken arm.*
I cast control undead and keep the skeleton as my staff carrier
Thats a cool little extra thing to add
Omg i literally remember that one dnd movie hahaha with the staff and the skeleton
after watching these shorts for months i just noticed the N64 in the background, one of my favourite consoles with one of my favourite games, Ocarina of Time
“Bro I was just giving you a warning, you know as much as I do…”
“Thanks for letting me know.”
*Snaps off the arm holding the torch*
*Holds that instead of the torch*
The DM explaining the obvious through NPCs never gets old
And then the Druid or Cleric casts Remove Curse.
Omg where have I heard this before? 🤣
It’s almost like they have this beautiful new innovation called 💫remove curse💫
Warlock: well, just carry the skeleton around and I won't be cursed
"ok then" *takes his hand with the staff* "checkmate"
The barbarian: No no, he has a point.
He's just trying to warn you, not threaten you!
Best response ever
My fighter:honestly. Fair.
Just take the skeleton arm that's attached to it already. Technically didn't touch the doomy gloomy stick then
I heard Meat Hook and instantly got hit with Barry the Chopper trauma. Thanks DM.
Warlock casts speak with dead: how did you die?
Corpse: i dont know, one second i was alive, the your in my face asking stupid questions
Its even funnier once you realise that skeletons do not have arses.
Well I suppose it's now holding onto his pelvis, but you'd understand that it used to be up there
I guess, the skeleton got a skele-ton of problems, he's all a-bone in this dungeon. Boneless future for such a good skeleton.
Dungeon crawl, it's the greatest crawl of all, going back to where we were, it's a dungeon crawl
I had a cancer stick once. The wielder and whoever makes contact with it just gained cancer. LMAO.
