Here are some of the most outlandish and funny things that this group did during their Rise of Tiamat campaign:
- One of the earliest outlandish remarks is the comparison of adding dragon claws and a dragon wing to something being less than what's in a “circling dragon butthole” .
- There are multiple instances of dark humor, such as the dismissal of a destroyed village with “nothing of value was lost” despite the loss of women and children . This is a recurring morbid joke from the group.
- The party's casual attitude towards death and morality is evident in remarks like one character asking why they are called a villain for “stabbing people in the throat” .
- The character Calik frequently suggests eating various NPCs, including the Elvish king's son, asking “You want me to eat him?” and “Can I eat him for father reading?” .
- The group seems to have a strange fascination with their cat companion, Cheshire. Outlandish ideas include turning him into a “flying cat moat” , covering him in meat as a dragon distraction , and the campaign ultimately concluding with Tiamat, a dragon god, repeatedly killing Cheshire….
- There are numerous instances of absurd combat tactics and character abilities. One player suggests using “Wog on Wheels” (a character in a wheelchair) to bowl over cultists . Another describes their movement as being like everyone is in “rickshaws that are tied together and he's pulling them”.
- The party's tendency to go off-topic and have extended, unrelated discussions during the game sessions is a recurring and somewhat humorous element…
- Their interactions with NPCs are often bizarre. For example, when meeting ice hunters, Calik offers “sex tricks” for food.
- The party's handling of a captured NPC, Varum, including gagging him with clean socks and planning to “pawn him off on the council that we all hate” , is quite humorous.
- Upon returning to Waterdeep using the Speak with Plants spell, Esky was still a giant ape and on fire, making for a memorable and outlandish entrance
- The idea of making wagon wheels out of Tiamat's corpse after defeating a dragon god is a particularly bizarre and funny concept.
- The group's underestimation of the gold they recovered, thinking 28,000 gold pieces was “chump change” after “all that trouble” , is an amusing display of their skewed perspective.
- There's a darkly funny moment where, after a village is destroyed by a dragon they avoided, they remark “nothing of value was lost,” trivializing the deaths
- Cheshire pretending a dragon is a “fairy pixie dragon” and trying to catch it with a “really really big butterfly net” is a silly image.
- A dwarf running down the street towards dragons with “arm up and no pants” is a classic image of chaotic player behavior.
- The plan to bathe in bottles of fine evermead is a hedonistic and slightly ridiculous idea.
- The GM jokingly suggesting that a character who claims to be a dragon is “just really really high all the time” instead is a funny way to address outlandish claims.
- The campaign ends with the memorable image of “a god burning a cat to death in a corner while three giant monkeys looked off” , which the group acknowledges as a ridiculous summary of their heroic deeds.
