With the plush campaign over, I've shortened the end part of the video to no longer have the plush ad, which means the video should loop perfectly from now on :3
Why of course! Afterall, it's name IS faerie dragon. Little bit of dragon, little bit of fae! All forcing a little gobbo to chase to the literal ends of the earth.
"According to all known laws of D&D, there is no way that a Goblin should be able to run so far. Its legs are too small to get its chubby little body off the ground. The Goblin, of course, runs anyways. Because Gobbo don't care what humans think is impossible." You go little Goblin.
Fairie Dragon: "How the heck did you guys keep up with me?" Gobbo: "Well easy, we-- actually, how did we do that?" Kobbo: "You got me there. *Pulls a map screen down, showing the rediculous paths they took* By all accounts this doesn't make any sense."
The link to the remix is in the description of the video, you can now loop on both desktop (by right-clicking) and on mobile (by clicking the three dots and choosing the loop option).
The fact that Kobold was angry about getting his tail stepped on, annoyed by Gobbo, and disappointed in what Gobbo was doing, but still accompanied Gobbo anyways says everything there is to know about his character.
The most faerie dragon thing: allow yourself to be chased over vast distances. Get captured. Use invisibility while trapped. CAptor opens cage to look for you. You get out.
@@TheGodlikeDragon It's the same with kobolds. There are the extremely adorable ones, slightly less cute ones, regular ones, the ones that look like rats and regular gnolls that were given the name of "kobold" because someone didn't do their goddamn homework for Kurtulmak's sake...
THE FROG FILLS THE WHOLE JAR POOR THING And I love how the loop adds more context to the kobold’s frustration - this has happened before, yet gobbo still pursues!

@@dietrichborden7614 Well, now I want to make a backstory for this. So I will. “Once upon a time, there was peace. Then, there was less peace. The reason for this distinct lack of peace, was a very important event. A meteor had struck the planet, with a special property. Inside, there were lots of noxious gases. Those gases happened to like to loom just a few feet above the surface. When the meteor hit, catastrophes occurred. The most important catastrophe, however, was the gases leaking from the meteor. The ammount of those gases was great enough to cover the world in a roughly dozen foot deep layer. No matter where it was, on mountains, or overseas, all large races went extinct from the event. However, those not tall enough to inhale the gases, had their races stay mostly intact. Now, a couple millennia later, the gases are long gone. But still, it had a lasting effect, even today.”
DM: "Here is Gobbo, the goblin. He has a net." Players: "What are you going to do with that net little one?" Gobbo: *points to a fearie dragon flying away.* Player: "I guess we are to a grand adventure!" :)
Faerie Dragon: "Finally the Ocean! Now there's no way that goblin can catch me now!" Kobold: *Pulls out a boat from nothing* Faerie Dragon: "Excuse me, WHAT!?"
Look at them go! What a stinking cutie, Gobbo and Kobold both fill my heart with such joy. Sweet work as always, JoCat! Edit: This would make a fantastic loop.
I agree. And if he doesn't release a version made to loop seamlessly, I might just have to download this and make it myself. I wouldn't mind having that for an alarm on my computer.
Now I kinda want to see someone do a wholesome dnd one-shot or something with a bunch of cute little characters banding together to do silly little goals like chasing a bug across the continent or finding a lost toy that's in an exceedingly complex dungeon for no reason.
Cosmic Crit sort of did this with their Skittermander Holiday One-shots. Skittermanders are basically little six-armed bright furred optimists who love helping people and making friends. Though the One-shots cuteness was balanced out by having the adventures heavily inspired (if not outright copied) from cheesy action movies and a bit of dark comedy in that the Skittermanders were seriously underleveled and often got smooshed by stuff (after which the player would generate a new Skittermander that wandered out of a nearby cardboard box or something).
Dungeon's entire point is that it doesn't deal damage to you, but instead loads you down with joke items and drains your stats through "harmless" impediments like losing Dex to fits of laughter, if you zero out you collapse and wake up at the start, all stats restored and the junk items lost. Plot twist is that the one running the dungeon WANTS you to have fun but doesn't understand that the items are 'cursed', so if you make it to his room laden with the joke items, he rewards you greatly for playing his game and having 'fun'.
Two things I noticed that I want to give props for: 1) The subtle color changes in the different environments 2) the circle around the castle syncing perfectly with the music.
As a medical scientist, it /is/ amazing how many problems are solve with either a firm whack or taking it apart and putting it bc together again. (My analyzers are little hellions, I feel ya Kobold)
I haven't seen any comments on how the skin tones adjust to the environment or any of the other small but awesome decisions JoCat made for this cute adventure. These passion project detail decisions shall not go unappreciated!!!
definitely gonna add this as a random encounter on the road in my game "in the distance you see what appears to be a goblin with a butterfly net and a kobold chasing what appears to be a rather large butterfly about 1 foot in length." the goblin and kobold chase after the faerie Dragon in a direction perpendicular to the group so its not going towards the group or away, so that gives the players the time to decide if they will sprint after the goblin and kobold chasing the faerie Dragon, in which case the group, with sufficient rolls, can catch up with the goblin and kobold, at which point i will improvise. if failed rolls or decide not to follow, then encounter ends with the kobold and goblin chasing the faerie Dragon off into the horizon and nothing ever comes of it in terms of the actual story.
If they don't follow or fail the rolls, you could make it a reoccurring gag. Have them spot the goblin, faerie dragon, and kobold in the distance, not quite close enough to chase but enough so that they know it's the same trio. See what kind of absurd places you can insert them into.
I have a random encounter table and on the start of the campaign they rolled for a naked gnome running past them. They didn't want to take the bait and follow
If they catch up they notice that the goblin and the kobold are still children and have gotten quite lost not knowing the way back to their respective tribes anymore. Now if the party decides to bring them back I'd have the fairy dragon follow them and give the party the opportunity to befriend it. Another consequence much later down the line could be some diplomatic stuff going on involving the two tribes that's not going so well but then the party shows up and thanks to having earned the tribes trust by bringing their children back could act as mediators.
The Faerie Dragon was actually the leader of a standard RPG party. Unfortunately, it skipped all the dialog options and had no idea *why* the other party members obediently followed behind it.
I thought this would just be the first scene for the duration of the song, but you went above and beyond a simple looping animation. Excellent work, got a smile from me :D
JoCat finally giving Kobolds some of the love they deserve (not the classic D&D ones, people like those as much as they like the classic D&D goblins. The adorable ones that people make, like the adorable Goblins people make).
"you see a faerie dragon" "I want to chase it" *campaign in hold for the next 2 months as they try to catch it trough every nation, kingdom and whatnot. DM uses this to show case the word*
Okay, given how the ending has the gobbo running after the faerie dragon again... This could loop seamlessly, maybe with edits where the gobbo doesn't trip on the Kobold and they join after facepalming and knowing the gobbo will need boat again.
In our campaign, there was a guild that essentially reformed sapient monsters and helped them intergrade into the city. My character was a sponsor of that guild and would nonlethally knock out monsters and leave fliers on their bodies.
We should all strive to share this tiny gobbo’s determination and excitement. She doesn’t even get sad or mad when it escapes, she just goes after it. That’s character right there.
Adventurers fighter: "Look XP running! Quick, fire ball them, eldritch blast, inspire my long bow shots..." Mage: "use a third level spell slot for two monsters? I don't think so." Warlock: "that's just a goblin and kobold chasing a fearie dragon, that's like 1 xp for each of us." Bard: "They're so cute, can we keep them?" Rogue (who happens to be a goblin, with a long secret background of how he lived on the mean streets of... cough cough gargle... sorry.): cute goblin, where! Let's follow them... for reasons...
Looking at the map of Belkinus Necro Hunt, 1:14 seems to have Belkinus' norther border, there's a mountain range in the approximate location of the Jagged Peaks, which also has a river starting north of it, and there's a city resembling Chester City in almost the same location, so theory: This is an early version of the Necro Hunt map, and there are other countries the players can visit.
This vaguely reminds me of that South Park episode where Stan plays an Xbox game called Heroin Hero which just consists of him chasing a dragon he can’t catch up to.
This is probably the most adorable thing I’ve seen on the internet so far. Also, the Urak Kei have nothing on Gobbo chasing a faerie dragon across a continent and a half.
Thanks for the wonderful videos my dude, I’m sorry for the way you’ve been treated as of late. I hope you find happiness wherever life takes you, even if that place isn’t content creation. Idk if you’ll see this amongst the tide of comments and messages but I wanted to thank you for giving me so many happy memories with your content. A buddy of mine and I looped this song for 4 straight hours while studying for exams and it is one of the happiest memories I’ve made at college. I swear to do my part to keep gobbo happy in your stead, I’m told I make some decent cookies.
Just the thought of this being a random encounter tickles me, like a party sitting down for the night eating stew then just through the middle of a camp, the faerie dragon, a gobbo then a kobold leaving them gobsmacked

Why of course! Afterall, it's name IS faerie dragon. Little bit of dragon, little bit of fae! All forcing a little gobbo to chase to the literal ends of the earth.

JoCat finally giving Kobolds some of the love they deserve (not the classic D&D ones, people like those as much as they like the classic D&D goblins. The adorable ones that people make, like the adorable Goblins people make).

@@ZachCremisiSky CUTEBOLDS BEST BOLDS
Gobbo is living his best life.
And Kobbo is just trying to keep him alive xD
Kobold-kun is a complete chad for backing his friend despite the absurdity of his mission.
Please tell me Kobold stays as a reoccurring character, i love him and all kobolds with all me heart and i want him to stay
I will call them Koboldy
I wholeheartedly sign this petition
Little gobbo and articficer kobald
This style of Kobold is Zito creation. Long ear floppy good boys. Hail our God Risf.
me too! I love the cute lil' kobold
Gobbo has a Kobold friend! I want Gobbo to form a whole party where they do stuff like this.
Gobbo, kobbo and kenko
And they are all Artificers. Time for tons of absurd contraptions of magic-aided engineering!
@@master-ofmanga2792 so fantasy Ed, Edd, and Eddy?
YEEESSS! He’s slowly amassing a party of cuteness!
on a side note, it is incredible how well suited this video is to the chosen song. That's some artistic talent right there
I like to imagine that this is all a side story of the Belkinus campaign, and is just happening in the background simultaneously to the main adventure
If you look at the map in the middle you can see its actually a map of belkinus
You just see the characters running for their lives from Thorne in the background.
They did cross the north of the map.
If the Belkinus Necrohunters dont "run into a goblin and a kobold chasing a dragonbutterfly" next session,
i WILL be angy

"you see a faerie dragon" "I want to chase it" *campaign in hold for the next 2 months as they try to catch it trough every nation, kingdom and whatnot. DM uses this to show case the word*
Dragon Head appears: Uh...
Second Head Appears: OH NO
Third Head Appears: Oh hey Kevin!
... "I did not hit her, I did NOT!" >)X^D
What I've learned is that this gobbo is absolutely adorable, and can absolutely *plow snow*
Zito's rendition of the Kobold is how Kobolds look in my brain ever since I saw the initial designs of "Task the Kobold Ranger" long long ago.
Faerie Dragon: *exists*
Gobbo: and I took that personally
Okay, given how the ending has the gobbo running after the faerie dragon again... This could loop seamlessly, maybe with edits where the gobbo doesn't trip on the Kobold and they join after facepalming and knowing the gobbo will need boat again.
I swear, whenever my mind hears this song it “auto corrects” it to Speed of Kirb
same
@just do it wtf?
I get flashbacks to watching aquire the sire
@@mettatonsagent7541 it’s a bot, ignore him
Acquire the ‘Sire for me
1:14
I love the little kobold's face as he flies through the air.
gobbo is a personification of the "no thoughts, head empty, just vibes" and i will die for them
The Kobold buddy has been introduced, and he’s a good inventive boi. This is everything I wanted
The kobold is an artificer
My expectations were unreasonably high, yet this was way above and beyond them!
i just noticed that at 0:05 the faerie dragon slows down to allow gobbo to catch up again, it really is doing this on purpose
Dammit, now I can't have my players ever hurting a goblin or kobold ever again.
Why would you hurt us D:
*Kobold (and goblin) lives matter!* - A regular human being that is absolutely not three kobolds in a trench coat.
until one turns out to be a tarrasqe in disguise
I would rather a 100 humans die than one goblin hurt
In our campaign, there was a guild that essentially reformed sapient monsters and helped them intergrade into the city. My character was a sponsor of that guild and would nonlethally knock out monsters and leave fliers on their bodies.
Gobbo: happy-go-lucky cinnamon bun
Kobbo: responsible born-2-minutes-earlier big brother
The perfect duo
Born 2 minutes earlier, dead 11 days later... ;____;
I've decided I want this to be an indie game, Goblin and Kobold go on a quest to catch a faerie dragon. Get on it Jocat!!!
Gosh this entire sequence is just delightful, and I utterly adore the little kobold
Even though that kobold is clearly an Artificer of some kind, it still has such distinct Task energy.
Also, EYYYY, Belkinus map!
I had a feeling that was the Belkinus map
Wait, does that mean Gobbo is in Necro Hunt?!?
We should all strive to share this tiny gobbo’s determination and excitement. She doesn’t even get sad or mad when it escapes, she just goes after it. That’s character right there.
Why did you call gobbo a she? Also he is the one and only gobbo
@@miniwhiffy3465 I did not know he was a he. Thought he was a she.
@@Chickenlegs145 understandable
I would love to see a party of a Goblin, Kobold, Gnome, and Halfling just running around doing cute things together like this
Party Fun Size 2.
I would too unfortunately the kobold and the gnome would have some problems
Gobbo, Kobbo, Gnommo, and Halfie
Welcome to the short stack campaign
Some god: do it again
Adventurers fighter: "Look XP running! Quick, fire ball them, eldritch blast, inspire my long bow shots..."
Mage: "use a third level spell slot for two monsters? I don't think so."
Warlock: "that's just a goblin and kobold chasing a fearie dragon, that's like 1 xp for each of us."
Bard: "They're so cute, can we keep them?"
Rogue (who happens to be a goblin, with a long secret background of how he lived on the mean streets of... cough cough gargle... sorry.): cute goblin, where! Let's follow them... for reasons...
That checks out
The length this little guy will go just to chase after a dragon butterfly is admirable
The best 2:04 seconds of my life. This is the pinnacle of animation and story telling
Looking at the map of Belkinus Necro Hunt, 1:14 seems to have Belkinus' norther border, there's a mountain range in the approximate location of the Jagged Peaks, which also has a river starting north of it, and there's a city resembling Chester City in almost the same location, so theory: This is an early version of the Necro Hunt map, and there are other countries the players can visit.
I think gobbo is in the Belkinus universe
@@thylacinepunic5582 If so, we shouldn't get too attached to him because of what happened to Mirth.
@@imatsoup2186 nuuuuuu
I needed this. I had been feeling down this morning and the sheer cuteness of this made me feel good again ❤️
Forget adventuring, Gobbo's got a bright future in the snow clearing business!
As a New Yorker, *anything helps*.
OH MY GOD ITS THE MOST WHOLESOME THING IVE SEEN IN MONTHS THANK YOU JOCAT
Came expecting a looped animation, left presently surprised at an adorable storyline.
1 minute in and I have decided this is a certified masterpiece
Tf is up with all these bots in the comment section
@@bubalackgaming8892 far as i can tell theres only the two but im reporting each one i find
@@cxfxcdude there's a few more in the other reply sections, weird af
@@bubalackgaming8892 two users doing it*
Found another. But same action taken. Ive reported all three of them about 10 times each by now
I had a faerie dragon once, his name was buttercup and he cussed liked a sailor from Chult. Didn't help we we're in Chult either.
The direction here is incredible, the animation fits the music perfectly.
Anyone else notice how they circled Chester city and how JoCat gave us a nice look of the map?
This vaguely reminds me of that South Park episode where Stan plays an Xbox game called Heroin Hero which just consists of him chasing a dragon he can’t catch up to.
This is probably the most adorable thing I’ve seen on the internet so far. Also, the Urak Kei have nothing on Gobbo chasing a faerie dragon across a continent and a half.
Look, I'm just glad Gobbo has a friend to have misadventures with now 🌟
Small detail but I absolutely LOVE that they’re running through Belkinus. Keep up the amazing work Jo!
Thanks for the wonderful videos my dude, I’m sorry for the way you’ve been treated as of late. I hope you find happiness wherever life takes you, even if that place isn’t content creation. Idk if you’ll see this amongst the tide of comments and messages but I wanted to thank you for giving me so many happy memories with your content. A buddy of mine and I looped this song for 4 straight hours while studying for exams and it is one of the happiest memories I’ve made at college. I swear to do my part to keep gobbo happy in your stead, I’m told I make some decent cookies.
Anything with Gobbo gives me great joy. The glow in the dark plush I bought a while ago always makes me smile :3
If kobolds and goblins actually looked like how JoCat draws them I would actually play one
Anything is possible with flavor and GM permission. Rule 0 *********
That's how I want my kobold to look. Little dragon baby boi. (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
If that was how they were portrayed more often then ooooh boy they would be EVERYWHERE XD
This made my day so much more wholesome it's nuts. I just can't for the life of me stop re-watching
I'm currently running a kobold character, I love those little dragon dudes!
Kobold rouge, kobold barbarian, kobold artificer.
@@ZachCremisiSky Kobold Sorcerer!
Lehvee is certainly special...
Adorable as always when it involves Gobbo
Love the kobold whacking the boat with the wrench to make it go faster. Gotta move that gear up!
This is like when you chase your dreams and discover your other passions and hobbies along the way and the journey expands.
I absolutely adore Jocat's interpretation of Kobolds. They are so cute!
Just the thought of this being a random encounter tickles me, like a party sitting down for the night eating stew then just through the middle of a camp, the faerie dragon, a gobbo then a kobold leaving them gobsmacked
Oh my goodness, I love that Gobbo has a little Kobold friend now! That's so precious!
