      One of the badass legendary NPCs who was supposed to be a villain ended up falling head over heels for my level 1 character lmfao. DM is caught between sobbing and laughing his arse off. The villain is one of his former characters, and honestly he seems pleased to be able to continue his story.

    As someone who used to be homeless for over two years, Caleb's "trick" with the bread hit very close to home. I actually cried. Jester is telling him he could just buy mittens when it's implied that Caleb never had enough money for a hot meal AND warm clothes.... so he came up with a clever trick to obtain both. I think Caleb is my new favorite character. That was a very subtle and masterfully done character moment by Liam.

    3:02:30 Sam turning to Tal after Molly says they can protect him and saying
    "No, you can't," is fucking creepy knowing what we know now. This campaign had so many coincidences line up I don't think it could ever be replicated.

    Just use mits.

    Then just eat and don't wear bread.
    "But then my hands wouldn't be warm."
    So buy some mits!

      Got to remember, Caleb's homeless. This is probably the first time in years he's had enough money that he didn't have to choose between having food to eat or warm clothes to wear.

    I like how when anyone rolls low insight Matt never says anything to the effect of "you believe they're telling the truth" but instead always says "hard to read." Too many people don't understand that failing insight doesn't mean your suspicions go away or that you believe whatever they're saying; you're just not SURE that they're lying or hiding something. You may very well still be suspicious; you're just not able to sense any proof of your suspicions.

      I think the only exception would be a contested roll against another player’s deception, where if they lie well enough you believe them.

      The best DM I ever played with would roll these out of view. Did you fail the roll and miss a secret door? Did you pass and there is no door? All you know is “you find nothing...”
      EDIT: just wanted to add that our group was much smaller, only 3-4 players so much easier for the DM to do the rolling in these situations. And we didn’t have a stream to entertain with reactions to characters’ rolls either.

      @@harperyourroommate8850 That's a precarious road. Robbing the player that's doing the deception is rather bad form. Though players really shouldn't be rolling social rolls against each other in general because of how it impairs RP.
