There's a Kung Fu film with a similar premise, where a fighter without arms meets up with one without legs and they learn to fight as one unit.

...In a Warhammer campaign I accidentally cut off a NPC's arm (my character was trying to stop a brawl). My character wasn't a fighter - he was a medic, and a damn good one if I can say so myself. What impressed the other NPCs wasn't the fact that he cut off the arm - it was the fact that he actually SURGICALLY REATTACHED IT! (it was a ridiculously good roll) He ended up being field medic for a troop of Sigmarites for a while. I guess the GM decided that the troop commander thought that, in a world where deadly wounds and amputations aren't all that uncommon, having someone that can actually put a limb back in place wouldn't hurt...

May your Warhammer medic heal many and win many battles!

First Story: Even in video game logic, there are some fights you're not meant to win, or at least you can't win them at lvl 1. If the Rogue was going to go all murderhobo, he could have at least waited until he was of a suitable level to challenge the other mercenary. Second Story: Yeah, that campaign should have ended much sooner, but yeah, it can be hard to end a campaign when you're having fun and it suddenly gets a bad turn. Third Story: yeah, the Mrlissi player should have tried to get a better read of the room, but I can see why a newbie can get the wrong message.

He is doge, he reads the cringe. Turn on his Playlist, he wants us to binge

In the last story the horror could've been avoided by the GM having both the balls and the presence of mind to tell the player that what they are doing is griefing, and that no he's not letting them to attack fellow players.

First story: There’s really nothing to say here except that that rogue is a dumbass. Second story: I, like OP, am amazed that this guy lasted as long as he did. Third story: See, as the DM, I would have had a talk with both the mryssi and the smuggler. The mryssi would have been told that I don’t allow PVP, and the smuggler would have been told not to exclude the other PCs. Communication-it’s helpful.

Okay, I'm with Doge on that first story. I've played with a player that made stupid decisions. Once they start making said decisions they don't tend to stop. Typically those decisions get worse until they reach an point ultimate stupidity.

Cutting ones arm? Roll an attack against yourself, roll for damage, roll a DC15 Con saving throw not to pass out. Pass that con check 4 times and you cut the arm clean off, otherwise you pass out from the bleeding and well damage you dealt against yourself. ^_^

Hi Doge! And Hi Lucky!

FFXV's Ardyn probably would have mocked the hell out of this Ardyn...

Damn the 1st story...what did they expect xD

Last story is absolutely the group and the DM's fault. The group let him get that far in thinking he was going to be kicked out of the party? Instead of combat rules, you should have explained what was actually going on. If they get upset and flip a table after that, then that's their problem.

Seems like Lucky has leveled up to obtain the astral dust. Granting wisdom and moral boost

Don’t forget crispy tavern bear bard and koohs corners.

Great story as always, but on a side note, I paused at 0:40, and it's the cutest shot of Lucky with his tongue sticking out. I've been laughing for three minutes straight at how silly he looks. So cuuuuuute

There is the tragic tale of Nuada Airgetlám who lost his arm in battle and was denied his birthright fore he was not whole. Luke Skywalker getting his hand cut off by his own father, getting a robotic replacement symbolically loosing some of his own humanity and perhaps unwittingly becoming more like his father. Ash Williams after seeing his friends get possessed and killed in horrible ways opting to chainsaw off his own hand lest he becomes lost himself.... and then you got this guy who just casually chops his arm off to prove some kind of point... ehh guess it's just as good a reason as that legend of that guy who chopped off his own hand to technically win a race for the rights to own the province of Ulster

18:08 I've actually played that storyline in ESO and wow, unsurprisingly cutting off that characters arm would 100% not make him cooperate and would probably ruin the entire quest line given that you kind of *need* him to help you to finish most of the missions afterwards.

A campaign I was running several years back, we all had a discussion prior to starting about what was and was not allowed, expectations, etc. Everything was going along just fine until the player group being led by an NPC into an old warehouse with a secret entrance in the floor opposite the regular door entrance. One party member made a bad roll and alerted the guards who started to rush into the room and take up positions throughout checking for what, or who, made the noise. A player asked (and this is the absolute truth): "the guard by the door, where is he at?" Another game I was a player in (I was running a halfling and a tohr-kreen) were traveling north to investigate something (snow, winter, there was a githyanke...a tower, I forgot what the party was supposed to do because I quit shortly after we ended up in the castle). Since I was new to this campaign, I was to choose 3 items from the magical items list in the DMG. I chose a magic carpet, a ring of wishes and an amulet of the planes. Everyone in the room chided me, "put the ring back, choose something else, you don't know the DM or how he will twist your wishes into something that will backfire on the entire party." I responded with: "relax, I know what I'm doing." They said: "oh really? Then why the magic carpet if we're going into a magically dead area?" To which I said: "because you don't have to feed a carpet, but horses, like what all of you are riding...to the far north...where there is no grass or hay or oats...put it all together now." Anyways, first encounter...was a tarasque (illusion but we all failed our perception rolls). As the image of a 50' unstoppable eating/stomping/clawing/crushing/biting monster was driving my fellow characters into the ground like tent stakes, Borf (my halfling) was flying around pulling animals out of his bag of holding indiscriminately as fast as he could, only stopping when the bad refused to provide animals. Anyways, the DM's wife looked at me and said (with anger in her voice): "if only someone had a ring of wishes *AHEM*. I said: "you're right! DM, I wish for a potted apple tree. Big enough to bear fruit but small enough to fit on my carpet." The game came to a stop at that point as the sound of 7 jaws hitting the floor all at once.

Called shots take a negative 4

I was waiting for "THAT'S NOW THAT "DISARM HIM" MEANS!"

That first story reminds me of my first time on the alliance back when wow retail was the only thing and no expansions were out. I tried a night elf and 2 "bros" were in the starter cave, telling me they deserved the loot more than me, because they were in a party but arrived late. I didn't mind it but they kept whispering to me insults as if I was new. I explained I was a horde main but they didn't believe it. Anyway I continued levelling and I got to lvl 10 and decided finish off some quests before leaving the starting tree hub island. Turns out they only just got there because "all the enemies were jsut too strong". They were in an area full of lvl 8-10 enemies and they only just got to lvl 5 and conviently forgot about me after 1-2 days. Didn't realise until their ex-party member met me and told me that "they kept running into enemies headfirst without upgrading their gear or doing any quests". -.-

Wow XD Also, as another posted, Lucky is incredibly adorable.

Doggy!

On the arm cutting/torture story i hate to say it but that might still be required, Zone of truth makes anyone who fails the save tell the truth yes, but it doesn't force them to talk, in fact the spell clearly states that a target can refuse to speak or even avoid answering the questions so just casting it isn't the end all be all

@@2g33ksgamingttv3 Oh. Right, sorry; I've heard "torture is required" too much in real life :( Still it is possible to deceive while under ZoT by being selective in your truths. I would favor any other method over torture, so while this could produce some useful results via magic, I would not say it's required. Persuasion has a much better track record :)

Story 1: I'll say this, Never been a fan of doing NPCs-PCs. Player levels shouldn't be given to possible allie/enemy NPCs unless they have a reason to have them or they need them. The rogue is an idiot yes, but the DM doing that with level 12s feels petty tbh, like a last minute Edit to screw him over even harder. Story 2: WTF (don't have much of a comment) Story 3: Ok so, I can see the side of the smuggler. You make a character that is built around having their ship, flying from point to point and messing around. Then, two randoms join in, running from the police. Now an easy way to get them in, is to have a very intense chase sequence or an alert that sounds like it may need them. Plus, if people know what a Jedi is, failed or not, he was in the right to roll for perception even if he didn't see it. The shooting though...I can't defend that. Still though, his actions up until then made some sense. I still think the DM should've done the bare minimum and avoided interparty conflict this early in the game. Oh well, C'est la vie

Smuggler: we have you four to one Mrlssi: I like those odds

The last story makes perfect sense if you understand why. The player felt the other players were ganging up against them and at that point nothing they do matters, so they might as well cause chaos. I call the DM is at fault for not controlling the smuggler, who was trying to kick the new players and started this mess.

It was not me, It was the one armed man.

Malcolm Reynolds! Hello fellow brown coat!

The Star Wars story was just a typical "I don't like failing / looking bad" player who resorted to baby rage over two bad rolls.

You don't cut off your own arm if you don't have access to regeneration, it's as simple as that. Druid: "THIS is why I'm better!"

Last story: technically a tangent, but I fully think that a rule stating that you are required to include any random person that walks in that wants to play is a stupid rule. In a regulated atmosphere like AL, sure, but you have rules and regulations surrounding that. For a random (likely homebrew) game with no true cohesion, I think the most any store should do is "highly encourage inclusion" when it comes to inviting random people.

With the first story, as one of the other players I would have just said "Then you can get the fuck out of our group, don't bother coming back until you're ready to be a team member instead of a solo player"

I never thought about it, but actually, yeah, the fact that the player went full nutcase and severed his own arm could be a real power play as an undying warlock. Captured by manacles? Not anymore. Scare the enemy? Bingo. Makes that feature useful, of course, albeit unhinged.

Used to play a rogue with a greatsword. But not in 5e.

Yes we've all seen the infinity knife it's nothing special

Small nitpick in the first story: why is the DM building level 12 NPC’s for a level 1 PC game? I get having people stronger than the party in the group, I do it all the time in my games too, but such a blatant power gap is a bit of a red flag IMO. Rogue definitely got what he deserved, but just gives me the impression the DM was expecting to use these mercs to “save the party”

OK very seriously for all the realism players and gyms out there even if even if your player rolls to have already done it you should be able to stop an arm cutting off unless they're using like a grade ax and they've got something to brace the arm against with Max damage ax damage because arms are difficult to cut through and to do it to yourself would require such mental fortitude I don't think 99% of the people on the planet could do it.

A bit OT but building other friendships without any romantic intent further down the line after a brutal rejection basically saved me. Wish Incel listened to that advice.

First story I mean I get that there are sometimes powerful npcs out there, but wtf are 12 level npcs doing close to a 1st level party??? Level 12 is to give you an idea 2 levels ABOVE what a general party is at when they defeat Strahd. And post also mentions that npcs this high a level regularky showed up?

Typical video game rpg mindset. Kill them for the loot, regardless of the plot. PCs are automatically stronger unless there’s a huge level difference

Second story irked me only because of the use of incel. An insult that has no meaning these days as its used for anything minor a guy does wrong. Complaining about rejection doesn't make him an incel. And that he was trying a relationship between characters later on isn't incel behaviour either. He was an idiot edgelord. But not an incel. If he was going out of his way to hate on women, and showed no interest in romance and sex. Then he'd be an incel, which means involuntarily celebate.

Kind of a shame that they cancelled the game because of incel instead of just replacing him and keeping the game going.

So, how was that guy incel? Guy has problems but I didn't hear a reason to call him an incel. Just a buzz weird to get attention.
