RollPlay -- D&D Campaign Show - Page 81

Is it possible to save tugabutt? I mean hypothetically Dalamar can fucking warp through space and they just slayed a dragon for him so they can maybe say "We'll be in your debt" or some shit.

I dunno but Tugabutt made the show, pouring one out... This is more devastating then Ned Stark dying in GoT ffs and that was devastating. I just feel like Oris and Dalamar have the power to do shit like this but the question is what is the reprecussions of doing so? I mean Dalamar hates Tugabutt t.t

I dunno, I'm pretty upset so I can't think, I just poured on out for the best character to ever be in any genre of anything;

Fucking Jexel.

Also I knew that slut betrayed them when they went to the "HQ" and found a fucking empty cave and a giant strolling at them. I wish they were less trusting I mean the leader giant knew everything about livinpink so it makes sense he'd know her best friend.

Also like fucking GoT (best example I can think of) has a guy who was resurrected 6 fucking times and we all go along and say "yeah magic in a magic world" so it's not crazy)

I just hope Neil finds the balance between keeping it realistic (with regards to the world) and punishable.

THIS SUCK! : ( Sad fucking panda

It really depends on how resurrection works in their world. He's made changes to so much else, I wouldn't be surprised if he could be resurrected. However I doubt the party has enough gold at this point to pay for it.

If it were my game.. I'd have there be an ogre priest on the island who is incapable of resurrection but totally could reincarnate him in exchange for his life. Reincarnation is a fun spell with lower level requirements and less long term downsides.

But I doubt I'd budge on him dying. He could have taken the tactically smart option and healed himself, then healed Vincent after the fight. (Assuming Vincent didn't get coup de gras'd). Actions in a roleplaying game have no risk or meaning without loss.

That said, there is no chance of dalamar or oris being able (much less willing) to do anything for them, IMO. Restoring lost levels is less of a deal than full resurrection, and oris couldn't even do that

I'd argue that the Wizard could put them in his pocket by doing so and Oris couldn't restore levels because it was approx 3-4 months after the fact.

I doubt it. That's what Neil said, but Oris didn't even think he could do it even if they had been there sooner. Also I don't think recovering lost levels is even a thing in 2e, though it might be available at higher levels via a wish or something. I mean, if I were the GM, the reason Dalamar wanted Oris around was so he could resurrect Brightblade. But we haven't had any hint of that., so Oris seems to not be higher level than the party.

Best thing to do is to let JP control a npc until they get a chance to get tudagub ressed, if he even decides to.

What does Dalamar want with dead heroes anyway? And of all the PCs, Dalamar is the least likely to res tudagub after the way he acted :p

I think we can stop the spoilers cause the last part of the episode was released today

Allowing resurection (at this level) is a hard choice. It can destroy games when it is to easy to afford cause there is nearly no fear of dying and the players stop being to careful (imho it was a miracle that with their style of play they needed 17 sessions until the first one of them died).

I also think that Neal is changing dalamars role to a potentional antigonist. Perhaps they will meet his "master" and get to know why he was cursed and that he has to stopped or something.

Another point is: the whole dalamar ex machina stuff is getting a bit out of hand while he had selfish reasons for helping them out before i think this is over now plus it's becoming a bad habit that when something fails they call for him (which i think abi was doing the last two sessions) and he helps them out. It doesn't benefit the game either when you always can relay on a single uber-npc-ally (I think dalamar seems like a dick the last time so this alliance might be cancled)
