@@Chameleon_Cat Well, an acolyte is what you call a follower of any movement/organization. Those who aren't leading the group. It can refer to people that aren't in a cult, but it does mean cultist in this case. Hope that helps!
I once distracted a village with my paladin's "magic", after some rolls the DM asked what i did...i showed him my magic where i "removed my thumb" and reattached it
Never make the mistake of thinking that just because Orcs a large, strong, and find the human tongue a bit difficult. That they cannot be wickedly sharp witted.
Honestly when I don't have to worry about stat modifiers, my fav thug/bruiser arcatype characters have low int high wisdom. Krod is proof why. Krod may have no diploma, but Krod knows how to survive better then anyone else.
I am imaging this 5 foot ten human screaming at this seven and a half foot green giant, "Pick a weapon!" And the giant orc just turning his head to the side, podering his move. Then suddenly slamming both hands together, like a clap but the man's head is squoshed in-between.
"Krod is very smart, did you know that theyre are ovwr 200 bones in your body? And more then 50% or half, are just in your hands and feet?" Fancy-pants the suitor: i...no...what? *takes 4 d6 psychic damage*
I think the implication is that he immediately killed him. Like the guy was halfway through his challenge to a duel and out comes a punch that takes the man’s head clean off his shoulders.
Reminds me of when in my first and only campaign, our Cleric started out distracting Goblins talking about his fish god. By the end he had pulled out a giant noteboard and pointer (which the DM allowed for shits and giggles), in which he gave a presentation on his religion, how it raises meat stonks (yes, the stonks meme), and convinced this group of goblins to join him in praying to the fish god and it was absolute gold.
GM: "So, how are you going to distract the goblins?" Cleric: "I CHOOSE 'RECRUITMENT DRIVE!' " GM: "Stop shouting! and that's not a-" Cleric: "So, fine goblins, you like food, yes? I too like food! But did you know, that there are Gods that help you get _FREE_ food? And from weak things that live in the water and are tasty too? Because today is your lucky day!" - Cleric continues throughout the entire campaign to attempt to indoctrinate any NPC that doesn't run away fast enough into a fish-related hybrid of a cult and Ponzi scheme... but with fish instead of money, so the GM and other players never manage to convince themselves as to whether the god of commerce would demand a share or not.
That insinuates she longs for a life free of all the stifling stress of being a noble, basically she'd have fun being an adventurer, but probably wouldn't last long
@@LokiToxtrocitywell, she'd be a level 1, but she definitely has the funds to pay for the best available companions. And if she did decide to become an adventurer, I could see her drawing the attention of a noble Fey, thus becoming a Warlock.
I would like to think that they were so distracted that they went to tell all the other acolytes Krod’s story and caused *everyone* to be equally distracted 😂
As a GM, I will say that a player being able to ad-lib a story like that would absolutely get whatever level of distraction they asked for. "The Acolytes listen to your tale with a mixture of disbelief and awe. They think you might be making it up, but they hang onto your words as though they can't stop themselves."
Now I'm imaging a 7'8 orc being incredibly stealthy and snapping the man's neck like it's assassins creed Edit: I posted this 1 year ago and it's still getting likes and replies
Krod while "hiding" in a bush in the hedge maze waits for the fair lady's suitor to pass by on his evening walk with the lady. Suitor doesn't notice Krod, perhaps he failed a perception check, perhaps he was fixated of the fair lady(perhaps she was actively distracting him as she caught sight of an opportunity.) Once Krod has the chance, he sneaks up behind the suitor and snaps the man's neck. The lady: Moist.
I'm guessing Krod is actually a Genasi. While most Genasi are linked to an element such as fire, water, earth, or air, Krod is linked to the element of surprise. EDIT: YES, EVERYONE MAKE THIS INTO A CHARACTER. NOW.
A while back I ran princes of the apocalypse, a campaign that has a lot to do with the elements, and long story short, one of my players was trying to convince a bunch of air elementals that his character was the avatar, so he cast spells for each element, and then said something along the lines of “but I have another element: the element of surprise!”
@@AtamaKizu I don't think I deserve internet clout for noticing that Krod is lowkey reminiscent of the worldbuilding that brought us such classic characters as Brick, Bluejohn, Chrysoprase, Detritus and Rocky! But thank you, Kind Soul!
My party was stealing something from a big ass museum and it was up to my pyromancer and a werewolf to make a distraction outside. We calmly chatted on our way out but couldn't think of something that would draw everyone out. So as we stopped outside, I summoned a small meteor down into the werewolf's foot. Oh boy did a meteor followed by a werewolf rampage bring everyone out of the building!

My Kobold Battlesmith has their "Grovel, Cower, Beg" trait renamed. To "Totally Not A Distraction". Which I flavored like the Failed Merchant that he is, as launching into a gods-damed SALES PITCH of something or other to just confuse the everlivin' heck out of the enemies.
@@DragonKnightJin Like Patrick Warburton as the Wolf in Hoodwinked? That is _easily_ one of my favorite movies of all time due to both him and everyone else.
Reminds me of a dual between an orc and high elf in Elder Scrolls Online. After going through hoops just to accept the dual, the orc pinches the elf's lights out before the match started. It was after the side elf said 'choose your weapon'.
I recall a Dark Heresy campaign where a party member was down the road from the rest of us when a gang rolled up and was about to attack him. He had an ability called Blather that lets him briefly stun people by saying nonsense. So he IMMEDIATELY began rambling to them about space toilets, the logistics of their use in these massive ships, how the waste gets processed, how there’s servitors whose entire purpose is maintaining them, etc. The casual way he explained this out of the blue was just so powerful. The DM decided he didn’t even need to roll to see if it worked. If it was good enough to stun us in real life, it was good enough to work in the game.
My favourite time being the distraction was when our party was being sent in on a heist to rob a fancy mansion that had a large vault under it. We'd been told of a pair of spectacles that would help us open the vault, which were currently held in a magic shop, locked in a display case. I told our other thief that I'd go in, distract the shopkeeper so they could sneak into the shop undetected, and then wait for my signal. I went in, started talking to the shopkeeper and got them talking about the different items, their back to the door so the other thief could sneak in and hide. Eventually, I walk the shopkeeper over to some items by the door, talking about what some of the wands hanging on the wall do, etc, and then as they're mid-sentence, I grabbed their head, slammed it down onto the display counter (only hard enough to stun them, not knock them out or anything), grabbed the nearest random item, and bolted out of the door like a man on fire! Predictably, the shopkeeper got back up, ran out the shop running and calling for the guards... all the while our other thief picked the locks, nabbed the specs, and snuck back out again while I bolted out of town. Got a nice little bounty on my head for it, but it was well worth it! It's also one of the few times I've left a DM confused and speechless... so I'm proud of that! XD
Be mindful of the *player* of the character, though. Not all players can be as quick-witted as their character would be. You don't have the Wizard player do calculus or something, the Barbarian player do deadlifts, or the Monk player do backflips IRL.

I love that he's playing Krod not as an idiot, but as a very intelligent man with an orcish accent. It's very possible that orcish doesn't have first person pronouns. Maybe it does have third person pronouns or maybe he's just picked up third person pronouns in his journey of learning common. Orcish probably has a slower cadence than common. Either way, he's bilingual and very smart, it's just that his accent makes him sound dumb.
@@ZHZhuull Well still if she is nobility and the suitor is the same or higher than she must have still liked Krod enough to pass up that amount of extra power and wealth

"No D&D is better than bad d&d."-Golden Rule Get that dm out that's some weird k!n% fet going on that's being forced on you. Not cool and anyone in that situation should leave asap.

I love that he's playing Krod not as an idiot, but as a very intelligent man with an orcish accent. It's very possible that orcish doesn't have first person pronouns. Maybe it does have third person pronouns or maybe he's just picked up third person pronouns in his journey of learning common. Orcish probably has a slower cadence than common. Either way, he's bilingual and very smart, it's just that his accent makes him sound dumb.
I'd say Krod is wise instead of intelligent. Wisdom and intelligence have always been Street vs. Book Smarts and Krod had a lot of street smarts
"I choose element of surprise"
_spanish inquisition shows up_
Krod the living embodiment of SCP-173, blink for a second and he uses surprise neck snap
Ok this might be my favorite thing ever
"Krod chose surprise" That was too funny
The classic Krod story, was wondering when I was going to see you do this one
Krod sounds like a orc with a smart head on his shoulders
I need mor Krod stories
Nat 20......LMAO
KROD had his purple pants on that day. Never saw him coming, and never saw him in the pants.
This lady must have really liked krod to let him just kill her husband.
Probably had a really fun game night before the police came.
A suitor is very much NOT a husband or wife. A suitor is someone seeking to become one of those
@@ZHZhuull Well still if she is nobility and the suitor is the same or higher than she must have still liked Krod enough to pass up that amount of extra power and wealth
no matter how many times this comes by its still hilarious every time
Story time: my dungeon master put two trolls ahead of us my dumb dumb says you are very submissive and breedable and then rolled at 15 my dm smirks and says there both like top I looked toward them and they violated me violently(my character is a elf cleric) violated me and my crew tried to save me a high human wizard and a high elf warlock the half elf shot a fireball and hit a tent and as a final attempt to have a better death was to climb into the fire along with the trolls
"No D&D is better than bad d&d."-Golden Rule
Get that dm out that's some weird k!n% fet going on that's being forced on you.
Not cool and anyone in that situation should leave asap.
That's just cruel man
...What the actual f*ck...
I have to believe Krod's speech was partially inspired by Old Ben from Fallout: New Vegas. Throughout his life, he was a courier, a crier for one of the casinos, an escort, and a bodyguard.
