Can’t wait to DM Drakkenheim
you probably have gotten this a lot but knolls are based on hyenas, no? hyenas are more closely related to felines than canines and they have a matriarchal hierarchy; often with the females being bigger and more aggressive than the males.
😊😢😢r😊50
That feeling when you hear your long lost mom's name casually mentioned in the DM description and do not recognize it until the DM (kindly) points it out.
"Guys, I forgot my own backstory".
Both hilarious and relatable.
This seems important now!
"I will wear the pyramid and become their ruler!"
*Wears the pyramid, becomes entry level management*
"We put on these costumes and pretend to play out a play about sin and redemption, but we do it with zero reverence." This is definitely something someone would do while walking through a dead city, sometime after the apocalypse, lol
Pluto: "Now stand aside worthy adversary"
Gnoll: "Tis but a scratch"
Pluto: "A scratch?!? Your arms off!"
@@alexanderthompson7164 No you 'avunt!
Have atchuuuu!!!!
This episode should have been called "Some Splainin To Do."
"Not to get too political, but..... everyone I know is dead." 😂😂😂😂
Monty is such a kind DM:
~He voices the creature noises, despite having described them
~He encourages rollplaying, even making it cannon when Kelly took his time.
~ 1:38:26 he did not make Jill roll a d20 to see if her bowstring snaps, even after Veo admitted scratching at it with her cutting claws.
~He allows his players to call their shots when they get a killing blow.
I just love you guys. It really feels like hanging out with friends.
Also O'Gorman seems like the most Canadian name ever. Its like Jose Garcia from mexico, Joe Smith from the US, and Joe O'Gorman from Canadialand
I think it’s because there’s only a few players. If there were more, it might get a little cluttered.
For real. Playing D&D with this crew would be the best campaign ever.
Yeah, I love the vibe of this small group.
Dog pun should have been "who ordered the hot dogs" then burning hands.
If you wait long enough to reuse your joke, it becomes a callback.
Anti-gnoll battle cry... "HOT DIGGITY-DOG!"
never pet a burning dog...
@@captainmaim why not petting a burning dog is the best

wait what
Pluto has Sebastian's mom's Javelin and armor forged by his father lol
Almost like Seb should have been the fighter for thematic reasons
@@KINFIN123 Sebastian's Dad, "Pluto, you are like the son they never had... Oh, hi, Sebastian!"
Brothers from different mothers!
(and dads)
"I forgot my own backstory" was gold
@@KINFIN123 that detachment really makes a vibe of like. queerness ig?
Critical what? I am busy watching Dungeons of Drakkenheim!
Level 5: killing big dudes shooting arrows while sommersaulting, blasting fire from finger guns and dismembering them like a cinematic MK Fatality.
Next turn, coordinated attack against mesmerized enemy. 7 dmg.
Those darn dice, dude
Love the attention to detail, with even the pigeon having a character voice played by the DM
I love how she names the pidgeons after the ones from animaniacs
Monty is a great DM. The PCs are great too.
Thank you!
Good call, Sebastian. Hypnotic Pattern on the gnolls could ONLY use the "dog daze" battle cry!
You guys taking a week off was good for you guys but damn I missed you all!
Every dog has its day, but the night belongs to Veo and the pussycats.
The Jackson 5 minus 2!
Veo and the Jackson Crows
I like how you guys stuck with the play and kept offering it the whole time in a very serious situation :D
i love this series and it gives me new inspiration for becoming a dungeon master, it also gives me something to look forward to every week
Thanks! Between watching you guys and Critical Role, my DM and player imagination has started to work overtime!
I love how Pluto's helmet reminds me of Marvin the Martian. I'm not saying he is him (or am I?), but that the visual cue is a delight. By the way, great game/play!
The dice know the gnolls are drunk!
A quick Google search confirms that pigeons can actually see colors better than most animals (humans included) and can even see in ultraviolet
Me: needs to go to bed so I can get to work tomorrow without being tired.
Also me: stays up late, barely holding in my laughter as I watch Dungeons of Drakkenheim while trying not to wake anyone else up.
You sir do a good job defending immersion and keep a good eye on equivalent banter.
This is the most impressive Player wrangling I've ever seen
Finally! None of you are allowed to get sick again until this adventure is over. 😉
This series is really entertaining guys. Thanks for giving me something to listen to almost every night for the last week as I get ready to sleep.
I think the series is meant top have a much broader following given time.
Cheers from Montreal
I love the tid bit about the plays inspired by the holy book because that defiantly a nod to mideveil theater history. Morality plays om wagons were a things. Theater majors for life Monty!
Rope Trick is by far my favorite utility spell. So very many creative uses for it!
It's very handy if you are bodyguarding someone squishy. As soon as there's a threat, drop your mark in the rope trick.
"Are you armed?"
"Obviously."
"Do you have spells?"
"Yes."
".......why are you wearing those costumes?"
"Because it's fun, sir. And Drakkenheim needs more fun."
You guys are a great group!
I have Critical Role and now Dungeons of Drakkenheim !
WOOOO!!!!
Tyler Barnick watch Yogscast High Rollers as well and then you’ll have three
I found High Rollers irritating. I recommend the Natural 1 series.
High Rollers, Roll4it and How To Be A Great GM's descent into avernus group are all awesome too
Tfs at the table is my favorite
These have such great re-watch value. It's been fun starting over again and catching things I missed the first time through. I really like that Sebastian chose Hypnotic Pattern as his third level spell and can't help but think he learned some aspect of it from staring down the Umber Hulk in the sewers.
I was already waiting for this tbh
I know I’m super late on this, but this may have been the best episode up to this point.
Friar Fat Cat, The Sin & Virtue. Sound like a band name from the 1960s lol. This need to be a t-shirt. Okay, love you all and 8 episodes in you got a sub for life.
Nah, that's an album or song name.
Kelly forgets his backstory, but my friend 14 sessions into our campaign goes "Wait, IM A ROGUE?" (He's been so focused on role playing a cat since he's a Tabaxi that he actually forgot what abilities were from his class and what was from being a cat... he also smokes a LOT of weed)
I could listen to these all day
The details on the gate/barracks would make a certain expert of CASTLES (because CASTLES are AWESOME) very proud.
Thank you so much, guys. I am really enjoying this series. You can't please all the people all the time, but you sure are nailing it for this one. Must be getting cold in TO; stay well and keep doing you. All the best
And that's how the saint was swayed by the devil due to the angel's lackluster performance :D
P.S. The sound volume was a bit too low in this video.
im so glad this week audio has improved . now i can hear much better thankyou . hey another suggestion. when you guys show the battle map could you guys tilt your camera at a angel instead of going a straight top down. as the map is full of dull color and the mini is blend in i hardly can tell who and where they are. perhaps some color indication at the ring of the mini base, so i would know at least whos color is where. as the color of the mini is a-little dull to catch up on a top down view. Or could you add a spot light from a angel to cast showdown on your terrain so its easier to tell. you guys are surely improving as i saw the interaction in the comment section
Maybe a paper cutout s3ick to the bottom with a bit of poster tack
Splaining... I believe comes from the Lucille Ball show. "LUCYYYYYY, you got some 'splainin to dooooo."
Historically accurate representation of Guild theatre activity. Very cool, Monte.
Plot twist - Veo has the hunch that her father is still alive because he's become an undead, and then took on a job as a ferryman and called himself Sticks.
Another brilliant episode and the plot is thickening now more players join in the fill in the power vacuum.
I like where this is going.
Love your work guys, it's inspiring me to try DM-ing myself.
Too notch quality.
If corpses dont rot it would be great for them to keep a cockatrice corpse and give to Oscar so he could make petrify potions.
For some reason, OK fine I know exactly why, the robots in the clock tower remind me of the characters from reboot. Member that old computer show back in the early 90s? That sounds like exactly what they are.
Reboot will always have a special place in my heart.
Reminds me more of Batteries Not Included
I'm showing my age, but they remind me of the robots from The Black Hole and Silent Running.
Love how this turned into the Purge after the Knoll battle.
1:05:38 The dream was the universe letting them know of the encounter. Nice.
Always focusing on trying to be punny is going to lead to some serious pun-ishment!!
I would take the rat prince to the alchemist with some plants from inside the wall's to sell. It would also be good to have him tell the ratlings what one's are good for food.
Hypnotic Pattern is one of the best spells in 5E.
If you're a Bard with an Instrument of the Bards, it's borderline broken.
I say that as a person playing a 16th level Bard with an Instrument of the Bards. As a person who does a lot of DMing, I occasionally find myself pulling my punches in combat when I DM, but this is the first character where I've started pulling my punches as a PC, since I can flat-out shut down a lot of the encounters our DM presents with that spell, so I generally keep it as a backup plan instead of leading with it every fight.
So now we know why Seb hasn't got a mom.
Can't wait to see the party hit castle Drakken!!! Loving this live play!!!
“Very little Romaines” was my very favorite quote from this episode haha.
Wooo! I just finished catching up on last night's Critical Role (which was incredible by the way! ^-^ ) and then I check RUclips and see a new episode of Dungeons of Drakkenheim just went up! #LivingTheDream! =D
Jupiter Jones is totally Gary Oak.
I'm glad someone said it!
These are amazing and i cant start watching the current story til i finish these :3
The adoption convo was so cute.
The play that the party found after they defeated the Gnolls deserves a comic. Because the thought of it is just hilarious to me
This looks like great fun, I’ve been a DM since 2nd edition, I had the original players guide from Advanced but I didn’t like it as much. Now I’m going strong in 5e and loving it so much, lots of amazing content to pull from and I know I’d fit right in with the Dungeon Dudes, great work guys keep it during these uncertain times!
Sounds pretty good this time!
i wish i had phone data so i could have watched this earlier, i got hit with a 7.0 earthquake about 3 hours ago and i've been sitting in a walmart parking lot because of the tsunami alerts.... But it's all good now so this is a nice way to take my mind off of it. Thank you guys for uploading this.
As I binge watch this I’m so entertained well played squad well played
I'm munching down episodes
I've been having to download your episodes to listen, you guys should put this on podcast form!
We are working on launching a podcast release soon. Stay tuned!
SO ! where would be the best place for you to find fan art when its done ? , I was so so so inspired becouse of the costumes and gonna do some drawing of them just completely going in character with the costumes they choose ( tho this may take a couple of weeks becouse school and work are just not letting me breathe ˇˇ )
Thank you so much for feeling inspired, and obviously take all the time you need with any fan art you want to create! You can always send it to dungeondudes@vigilanteproductions.ca and we can get it there! So excited to see any and all fan art!
Good job keep it going dudes.
Just now really getting into DnD and found your campaign. It’s fern filling the void while I wait for my friends to meet for our next session. Ty for all you guys do! Very entertaining and relatable characters lol 😂
"I look at it."
...It's gonna be one of those sessions, eh? XD
Still watching this in 2023. NGL I like this more than CR.
34:06 Veo loves food and sleep in that order
When they were searching for a dog catch phrase, I was screaming, "Who let the dogs out!?"
I mean, he is a sorcerer, maybe he just knows elven like he just knows magic?
Been Waiting a week for the next episode, figured you took holiday
Would love this as a podcast!
One thing I have to mention right at the beginning - I like the tabletopaudio music use, it does make the listening smoother, but could you maybe diversify the tracks a little more? So far there's been two "calm" tracks, River Town and one I haven't matched yet, and I think it was Clash of Kings for the combat encounter last time. They're great by themselves, but I just find myself getting weary from these same tracks eight 2.5-hour episodes in. If those are the same you play right there in your room, it's all good then, but if they're added in post, I'd love it if you could mix in a couple more tunes at least.
That Performance check at the end was clearly the most imporant roll of the campaign 😅
Jesus... that last 45 minutes ... MY GOD!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love the finding of the costumes and the gratuitous use of Disguise Self
So is this the part in the game where you have to prioritize which sidequests you wanna do first?
The scroll of epiffiney is a D.M. pacing tool but can be used to plant story seeds you have ignored too.
So far, I have nothing bad to say about pacing and I'd like to be able to do it as well in the far future :) Good stuff!
"Does anyone want to see our play?" ........ absolutely hilarious!
A fat cat, an angel in full armor and a devil poking him in the butt in the middle of post apocalipse city.
I swear wathing this series in going to kill me.
would you guys ever consider doing a video on the different tools like Thieves tools or Artisans tools?
25:47 emotional bomb drop 😮
Pluto says "You;ve thrown a harsh on my mellow" by mentioning Jupiter Jones...
Your dice didn't betray you! That is just what happens when you drink a bit too much before you face off against the Jackson Five Minus Two, I mean the Three Crows, err, I mean Veo and the Pussycats.....
looking good, im liking the mercenary set up
That was awesome. You guys (& gal) make for much better viewing than Critical Role.
Never eat anything with an intelligence score higher than 3 unless you want uncomfortable questions! LOL
The fish-person was wearing pants, for goodness' sake! It had hands! Hands!
Dont worry guys im only 7 months behind lol catching up
Don’t worry, We are currently on a 4 week break. Plenty of time to binge some Drakkenheim. Hope you’re enjoying!
You're still ahead of me... 😄
25:50 Dont worry Kelly its totally cool not to have every singlel detail of your characters back ground down by 5th level.......I usually allow my pcs to develop specifics of their backstorys organically as we play if they need to
And as always great episode and thanks
I literally gave Monty a list with my mother and fathers name on it and what I knew about them..... and then went ahead and forgot my moms name lol - Kelly
@@DungeonDudes happens to the best of us. Well i was in luck when i forgot my characters fathers name. Because it was very well in character^^ a paladin of sorts. Of sorts means yeah mechanically he is a paladin, but definitely without the vigor. I admit he was created around the idea "how do i get the magic initiate sorcerer to make sense?". SO he was a farmers youngest son. And things happened. usually harmless things but startling things like green flames around whatever he held in his hand when he was angry, the village kids ending up with blisters on their hands after taunting him. Stuff like that that made him very unwelcome and definitely also sullied his fathers reputation. When paladins came to his farm for provisions he packed Mika on top. Maybe they can use that cursed brat. The skull is empty but he at least has two good arms and paladins know how to deal with curses like magic, right? So Mika ended in the "care" of the order and at least he learned to keep his sorcerers blood in check. He has his two cantrips one being his trade mark "green flame blade" (things in his hand having green flames around them) booming blade and just in case shield . And well the campaign was set in the small town "storm harbor" just a walk away from Mikas farm. And the cheapest inn is close to the farm. So you can imagine this was a truly tear jerking family reunion with the son nonchalantly acting like he forgot his own fathers name (well i literally did). SO tear jerking it almost started a bar fight.
43:40 (You know real estate).
Those bells must be worth a bit, even as scrap metal.
I really cant believe this shit aint got much more visits. Hold on guys, the golden age of roll play is coming again and you will be on top.
Why is there no MERCH of I am the Devil of Sin, Angel of Virtue, and an adorable Veo Fat Friar?! Aaaaah I want this!!
"I give him a Caspian fist-bump." XD
The clock tower comes with its own Modron task force. XD
