D&D Story: DM.exe has crashed! || Attack at the school

- Got another Dungeons and Dragons story from when I started up a new campaign. This one takes place 500 years after my previous story ended. The players tracked down a Lycan cult and invaded a boarding school, leading to a rivalry between our paladin and samurai. Enjoy! D&D Story: DM.exe has crashed! || Attack on the school

I would have just said "His character thinks he is invisible, but he is just really annoying so people ignore him."
Perfect 😎👍🏻
I would say due to his invisibility, he cant hurt people they dont seem to acknowledge his presence when he whacks them with a sail boat
Indeed, invisibility is one of those details that tends to disrupt plot lines severely, so should have prior GM approval.
Vashy434 it would have been hilarious if the GM would have decided this, but only told every player but the one playing the character.
"Though he was invisible for 500 or so years, a curse of lonely proportions to be sure he is now visable due to the shifting moon pattern."
Boom stupid player, eah, thing dealt with. Yes you can do pretty much anything... but I as DM reserve the right to keep the game on track and that permanently invisible crap does not work!
So...he's still alive. That means there's at least one person who can still tell the story of how they got the name "The Turtle F*ckers"
Who? Are you talking about the Turtle Friends?
They are all alive. They dont age.

Will’s development from “I’m not going to play” to “I’ve been invisible for 500 years” is incredible
lmao will went through more character development then his character 🎩
That’s character development
Will gave up and embraced 'the Sadness'
@@matthewweng8483holy crap somebody said it.
More likely will realized how much fun he could have effing with his brother in game.
Permanently invisible
Still takes out teachers so they don't see him
I would have said no to the idea all together. Also, how did the Monk survive for that long?
@@reiman1308 At the end of the Covenant Wars they were all given semi-immortality (won't die normaly but can be killed) after becoming demi-gods as a reward from a god of law.
My guess is that Will just wanted invisibility for flavor instead of using it for practical uses.
but that means he can blame it on the haunted boat.
When the guy who bullshit their 500 year old character into being permanently invisible and unnoticeable is only the second most annoying guy in party.
Yea, he also happend to be his Brother, and he did bulid this character to be useless since thats what he wanted to play
He quite specifically didn't want to play
3 most annoying with the rogue trying to con the kids and the law enforcement system.
@@bthsr7113 the rogue probably did the LEAST amount of chaos.
I mean, trying to con a bunch of kids out of their lunch money? That's completely in-character and would fit in in any campaign that takes place at a school.

I get the feeling that the whole “permanently invisible” thing is payback for the Chadwick Strongpants incident.
I know how you feel about that "Where the Wild Things Are" joke, I once made the mistake of calling a dagger "perfectly balanced" and two players responded in near perfect unison "as all things should be."
One my fellow dnd players and I freaked out when our DM mentioned someone leading us towards an Obelisk. We immediately were like "this is where we all die" and "lets not knock it over." Yeah.... it turns out it was used to open a door to a dungeon. Anyways after everything that followed THAT we all hate the person who sent us on that mission.

She's sweet, not sweaty.
To be fair there's a chance it was either a low-level damaging spell, a harmless cantrip, or an illusory spell making the child think he was on fire.
Either one of these cases would lead to the child, (whose hp must be lower than a level 2 Sorcerer's max :P ), being fine.
@@Heavenlyhounds96 ignoring of course that she took a small child and either lit them on fucking fire, or made them think that they were on fire, which is hideously brutal or dickishly cunning, depending.

I love how the invisible one is the only one who doesn't take the sneaky route
At first I thought the monk wasn’t actually invisible, but he just annoyed everyone so much that they collectively decided to ignore him.
I was disappointed when I found this wasn’t the case.
Too be fair when he used stealth he just knocked people out so we haven't disproven it.
What if he isn't invisble? Maybe he was so annoying, reality just made him a non-entity to all who look at him directly.
There's a facinating Twilight Zone episode about a "Mark of Banishment/ invisibility" that is placed on ' non- conforming offenders'. Those bearing the mark cannot be aknowledged as present or existing.. total social ostracization
Permanently invisible, by the way.
Me: *grabs lighter* yeah, can I see your sheet for a minute?
Me as a GM: Sure, you're permanently invisible
GM Notes: Character believes himself to be invisible, is not actually invisible, people just ignored him
Permanently invisible to the point of being completely intangible as a curse. Flares up at the worse of times.
Trogdor strikes again.
And by intangible I mean. It flares up so bad he kind of doesn't exist at the time. Like he can't communicate. He can do recon, find things out, but oh dear. He's drifted off into another dimension so someone else will have to redo the job.
Oh look a high level minotaur. Shadow Monk could solo him, but oh no, his illness has flared up after making his first blow, now the creature is pissed and he can't do anything but watch as the party now has to flee or be brutally slaughtered by a creature they could have otherwise tried to sneak past.
I would give him advantage on stealth+SOH checks but disavantage in everything thats related to people seeing him (intimidation, persuasion etc...).
He's not invisible,He's just not noticeable or interesting AT ALL.
Basically kuroko...
This really hits different with the newly uncovered Asiago lore. I’m starting to think the flame-roasted children were intentional…
"Oh, look at that druid. She is so cute and adorable! We completely trust her."

Did anyone else notice that the person who made Michelle is Will, his brother who doesn't like playing rping games? Just pointing it out.
I mean from what i understand of the events, Will just had a very bad first time with Ttrpgs and so didn't like them, but it obviously grew on him after he got into dnd
Invisibility thing aside, it does make some degree of sense that he could use his old character:
- He'd still be around, as he doesn't age.
- Given that he saved the multi-verse, it would also make sense that his job as an adventurer was done, and his skills became forgotten and abilities atrophied from disuse, so he could be lv1 again.
- As for his things, easy, he misplaced them over the course of 500+ years.
I'd probably have the character pursue a different class. How fast the character picks things up is easily explained as 'well there is some carry over.' but needing to work up from first level is also covered by 'I never did this before.' So, dex focused fighter, rogue, what have you instead of Monk. Leave it open for the DM to whip out "Yeah, you either go back to the old ways or everyone of their deaths is on your hands." to prevent a TPK. (Come up with a handwave like 'Ki backlash' for why your back to normal stats from then on as needed.)

I had a similar? Situation where I was doing a "just about anything goes" campaign for laughs...
And one of my players, on the first session that his character gets introduced... decided it was a good idea to shoot a police officer.
Not one that was attacking the party, literally a police officer asking a party member some questions.
His shots almost hit the party, and struck two police officers, about 30ft from the police station. A firefight ensued where the police officers chased him around town until he eventually died. The rest of the party either ran or hid. It was a shitshow.
Just to add the icing on the cake, the character was a demonic version of Po from the teletubbies...
My only regret in life is not being a part of that campaign
The first red flag for me would probably be the fact that this guy was RPing as a demonic Teletubbie.
"Are these companions of yours?"
My response would have been:
"They WERE, until ABOUT 30 SECONDS AGO"
My options would've been
A, If I denounce them as possible allies am I free of associative charges?
B, I told them to stay put while I get this warrant shows Warrant so I am not guilty of THEIR actions, do as you please.
C, everyone but the samurai; he's kookier than a worshiper of Ralishaz*
*Deity of insanity.
My response: Never seen these people before in my life!
Ahh the old "get a bounty placed on a pc, turn them in for the reward, and break them back out of prison" scheme. *Works* *every* *time*
I had players successfully pull this off... once. And only once. I actually had to dial back the bounty reward because it would have been way too much cash to give the players. I explained part of the reward money was swallowed up in taxes, fees and other bureaucratic BS, which they bought. :D
We're doing this in our current campaign, except that we're all innocent, got framed, and are now awaiting execution, unless the new player's warlock (who joined after the whole getting framed thing) manages to talk to the city's lord...
Edit: oh i forgot to mention, the Lord was the one who actually commited the murder and framed us...
Welcome to the good the bad and the ugly
I did something like this in a pretty tricky way. They collected the reward 3 times by 3 different members, the villagers unaware they were connected.
Then they needed to get through a mountain pass, but OOPS, look at that! It's been sealed! With no money to pay for security, the guards were dismissed and the decision to prevent anything else from coming through was made. They blew up the entrance!
Time to go around!
Doubling the hurt, I brought up I'd had a side quest tomb raid planned, but they exchanged the possibility of getting a magic weapon (which no one had yet) for plain raw coinage. There were no purchaseable weapons at the previous town or next two upcoming towns, either.
They luckily only rolled two physical immune encounters before then, but both were the hardest fights of the campaign _since only one character out of five could do damage!_
Everyone else was just a glorified meat shield.
Pretty much the story of Dragonheart.

I'm honestly waiting to either hear that the samurai gets an alignment shift to Evil and/or the paladin just has enough of the samurai's antics that they decide to PK.

You should make a houserule: If you change your character during the session, you can only switch it to Chadwick Strongpants.
Too op abserd
Honestly tho, changing to shredder isnt really a big deal since the samurai was alrdy basically a villain and the guy playing the baron probably didnt want to play a villain. Also nothing actually happened during the campaign so switch all you want.

You know, the permanently invisible shadow monk, feels like a good training description for teaching new DMs when they should recognize it’s time to say “no” to their players.

"I get the forms and begin filling them out."
"Roll a Survival check, please."
"Uhhh ... 4."

(Either that or it's a Lord Flashheart reference - "Am I pleased to see you, or did I just put a canoe in my pocket?"
@@tommcewan7936 Its a magical item.
Character is so sneaky that he is permanently invisible. Could easily just stealth past the teachers. Instead starts knocking them out and breaking walls with a boat.
@@tommcewan7936 Ho-ho! Hello, Queenie!
The foldable boat is like a boat that you fold. I've seen pictures. It's technacly a magic item, but it looks entirely mechanical.
It would be cool if the whole campaign turned into a manhunt where all the players are trying to track down the samurai as he makes his moves in secret slowly making more erratic decisions leaving a trail of chaos in each town he visits as the bounty constantly increases. It seems all the character motivation is there (from what I've seen). The paladin wants justice and the thief wants money. not sure what the other 3 want but hey I'm just thinking out loud here.
edit: Spelling
Samurai slowly but surely develops to become the BBEG?
I mean, it would also allow the Samurai to continue to control his own character. There would still be an overarching story and villain... but the Samurai would be like a side thing that would add to it.
Yeah, seems like a great way to take the campaign. The Samurai slowly starts to acquire greater and greater power while on the run and hits up even more towns for quick cash. Then, as he starts to become infamous and acquire a gang, he prepares to make a stand against his old comrades. It is at this point that the big bad approaches the samurai with an offer: become my underling and I'll give you the power to have your revenge. It is at this point that his lair becomes a no man's land, filled with explosives, firing lines, formations, and more, as the samurai waits in the throne room as some type of underling to the big bad as a season finale to a campaign before a break.
While that does sound pretty cool I would like to see the Rouge's plan of capturing him and setting him just they can keep getting to bounty money.
@@somerandomdude5638 , that's definitely the way to take it if the campaign takes a more humorous and light direction. The DM will have to gauge what to do based on the feelings of the group. Regardless, this is an excellent plot thread that can go in a number of fun directions.
"Don't come to adventurer's league tommorow" - this guy
My response to the "permanently invisible" claim: "You _were,_ but you aren't any more. As you think on the miracle of the end of your permanent stealth you realize that somehow, overnight, you lost levels gained in your previous campaign and are now the same level as the rest of the party; congrats, if you need to adjust your stats to match the rest of the party do so now."

I'd love it if there was just one guy who just went in, got the thing, and left before anyone else could finish their convoluted plan.
Question, did you explicitly note to them that it was freely open and available? One thing I've noticed with running games is its easy to assume something is a given, as a DM, but the players misinterpret because they're lacking sufficient context.
For example, I once set up a scenario where the players had to head off a cult wanting to steal the body of a saint from the monument where it was interred. I had to explain to the party that, during the day, the monument was open to the public so they were free to poke around and set up their surveillance because they weren't going inside.
If the Samurai Player got another character, the Samurai can always come back as a foe of the party.
Just reaching new levels of derangement whenever they meet him again.
I'm honestly surprised that Ben didn't mention this person's new character showing up.
Atleast you have one player that isnt a total murder hobo.
I'd have dm'd it that the samurai got gunned down and I'd have just down right said no to that permanent invisibility bs
Same here.
To be fair invisibility dude is played by his brother who he's just glad is playing Table Top rps given the hell he went through to make it occur.
@@danielleasewala2225 adding to that. Wouldn't be surprised if the brother had blackmail material. He might have the baby pictures.
Puffin's new video makes Asiago's entrance much more devious...
yes
The real question is
Is the fighter still sitting in that tower paralyzed to this day unable to do anything but think about his life and the choices that led him up to this point
Why did you tell this to us now I will ha e nightmares about him
Yes.
This is just a JoJo reference with a disguise on
That would be a great Big Bad
@@river8803 havent seen jojo but this campain is probably just a bunch of jojo references in a trenchcoat
This seems more like Puffin's therapy session video then anything.
This reminds me of the society I had in one game that was powering devices with “mage batteries.” Turned out that they made these batteries by slowly draining the life force of arcane casters and mixing it with liquid ether. The players left that city in a runaway rail car as the mage battery factory exploded.
PALADIN: LAWFUL GOOD
SAMURAI:EVIL
EVERYONE ELSE: CHAOTIC GOOD(I THINK THAT THEY ARE GOOD BUT THEY COULD ALSO BE NEUTRAL)
reminds me of this video:
ruclips.net/video/11X60SlPYIc/видео.html
it actually involves a paladin and a Thief...
WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING?
The druid set a child on fire, and the guy _who is permanently invisible_ hit people with a boat to sneak by them before destroying a wall. And the thief stole from children, which is literally the least of their crimes.
They are chaotic neutral at best, because if they were good _they would have done literally anything else than become terrorists._
Actually, no, they weren't terrorists. Terrorists create fear in the pursuit of a goal. These guys (their characters, not the players) didn't even do it for the fun of it!

'Takes deep breath'
*WILD THING, YOU MAKE MY HEART SING!!!*
*YOU MAKE EEEVERYTHING GROOVY, WILD THING!*
Sorry... I'll see myself out.
Oh man... this episode had me laughing my drunk ass off to tears. Thank you good sir.
That character art for the Druid was pretty dang good,can’t lie
2:46 sums it up; "I have no one to blame but myself for this".
I freaking love how the guy playing the baron realized real quick how badly this all looked for him.
Feel like this could’ve come back in a nice way that could bring the baron back. Samurai returns as a villain, baron returns to clear up the dishonor to his house, baron and Paladin have a climactic standoff against the samurai.
I personally like when players can creatively write an old character into a new story, no matter the circumstances. I had one wizard or something that would explain it away by casting a simulacrum of spells (back when Simulacrum was still a thing), where he'd spend all his levels on wish's to become young again. He was technically thousands of years old, but used the rules of the spells to make it lore friendly how he could live, say, 500 years.
I was expecting the "fire the gun upwards" fiasco to lead to the DM saying "this school is multiple stories high, you just shot a random kid on the 2nd floor"
Wait, wasn't this the same monk that got hocked up on shrooms and lost the Mournblade in the playground sandbox?
I believe so
Eeeyup
It was a retorical question but thank you for answering, lol.
also, not sure if it was intentional on Ben's part, but:
"What dou you mean 'you lost the mourneblade'?"
"What do you mean 'you're permanently invisible'?"
YUP
It doesn't matter how many times I hear the wild things bit, I still laugh like an idiot. XD
Terrible puns are always funny in Puffin stories. Well, not the puns themselves, more the awkward silence where Ben contemplates using his GM position to end them instantly.
5:50 all the other kids with there pumped up kicks you better run better run out run my gun
what the fuck is this edgy shit
This is why as a DM I require ALL characters be finished and turned into me BEFORE the first session. And all mechanical stats, powers, effects, etc be cleared before being written into backstories. LOL
Clever.
Mad Hatters in jeans Oh well one-shots are a totally different beast. Most of my players don’t wanna even make characters for them, preferring pre-gens. I was obviously referring to campaigns...and the fact my players have destroyed my trust 😂
PF: "I have no one to blame but myself for this"
As a DM, I feel that. On so many levels.
This reminds me of a story of my group.
We were playing Fallout D20, not DnD. We arrived at a small town, where one of the kids pickpockets one of the party. He finds out, then proceeds to attack the kid. He and another member of the party kidnapped a bunch of the kids after they tried to help their friend.
The rest of us were trying to stop them. However, we didn't need to. Turns out, it was home to the families of a BROTHERHOOD OF STEEL outpost. Meaning, for those that don't know, they kidnapped the kids of a lot of highly trained soldiers with Power Armor and Heavy Weapons.
Anyway, one of the kids ran, and the guy who started this mess SHOT him. Naturally, the Brotherhood turned them into paste, while the rest of us quickly and quietly abandoned those two to die.
I like how the Shadow monk slowly turned into Shaggy from 1:10 to 1:20
2:43 That is the best “I just made a terrible joke and I’m proud of it” face I’ve ever seen.
Omg, the samurai is a freaking murder hobo.
The worst kind of player
A murder hobo is reasonably tolerable. This is a psycho hobo; that is not tolerable.
ironically enough that sounds like how samurai acted during the crazy Japanese civil war era lols "listen mate you cant get that sweet loot or promotions if you dont keep stacking enemy heads"
Just gonna leave this here ruclips.net/video/VAMHqDdpR-0/видео.html
I can only imagine what kind of terror someone playing a Ninja WOULD be then...
In one of the maps for my setting, I made a mountainous region called "The Wild Lands" because, due to all the monsters and such, no one had ever settled it. I couldn't get them to stop asking if that's where the wild things lived.
“Your terrible pun causes 1d4 psychic damage to the rest of the party.” That’d get them to stop. I mean, might wanna hold that one back just to not stifle the party’s humor, but if they’re just repeating the same stupid joke like that, might be time to pull out the penalty.
Also, is 1d4 fair for that? Ideally I’d rather have the penalty be light: enough to be an deterring annoyance, but the party shouldn’t get screwed for the next fight just because the guy playing the bard thought he was funny.
I had a party where one of the players played a literal 8 year old child, who was a warlock who accidental made a pact by reading what she thought was a friendship spell in her father's library. She then ran away from home to go adventuring. Her father, out of concern and desperation, set a ridiculously high bounty for her safe return (he was a high ranking noble). She hated her father. The rest of the party was either evil, or chaotic stupid. Que, epic repeatable scam. One of them would return her, collect the bounty, the rogue would help her leave, rinse and repeat. It was a pretty clever racket, honestly.
"Permanently invisible" ... Sounds like your brother watches your videos
I bet after the campaign ends his character will find a cure for his invisibility
I thought his brother was really made up. Maybe he has a sister named Michelle who's husband's name is Billiam Dichard.
That Is The Most Dishonorable Samurai Ever!
They're all like that when their body cameras are turned off.
Back in the day Samurai we famoas for testing out any knew blade they recieved on common villagers. Murder hobo comes with the territory
@@CCaseyTnT Nope. They only used dead bodies. Still amazes me on why people keep believing this. You've got. Free. Workers. There is literally no advantage in killing peasants that have to create income for you. Even the dumbest barbarian got this.
But yea, some still were huge pricks, just like some european knights. Very dishonourabru dispray.
SHAMEFUL DISHPRAY
You should read up on samurai history. Not even close to the most dishonorable things a samurai can do (without losing title). I mean at least he didn't just murder a student casually just to test his iaijitsu skills.
Fun fact: Gun blades were actually a real thing... they wern't very popular.
They'd be popular with today's weapon collectors and fanboys/girls/badgers.
@@exiegelastweekgamer1571 fanbadgers?
@@eric_moore-6126 Yes. Fanbadgers. You telling me you don't know someone who identifies as a badger? (this is a joke)
I remember when the Phantasy Star games added gunblades, and they were just more trouble than they were worth to use.
I like the idea of a PC who is permanently invisible BUT is super annoyingly talkative. So they have the capacity to be sneaky, but they have to pass a wisdom check to see if they have enough sense to shut up.
