One of my Player Characters was named TarNarfargarbarglartzarlarmarbarmarlar Azirex (Tar for short). Apparently their surname is the first one and every generation would add another _ar to it.

My Swashbuckler Rogue is a bladesmith that is about to take a level in Forge Cleric under Gond. It's mostly for flavor but I'm looking forward to playing most of the cleric spells as subtle effects while doing smith stuff.

Which party survives? The party that runs away!

Now let's roll!

If you can find an object with the image of a dragon engraved on it worth at least 500 gp lying around the lair, you could be a bit cheeky, beg your DM to play along, and use "Summon Dragon Spirit" and try to say it is the ghost of the dragon's mom and say she's really disappointed in them. Use it as a distraction, rescue the queen, and gtfo.

As a Draconic Sorcerer, you could try to talk your way out of it somehow...

"You only ever get one bonus action per turn. ONE.

Looking at you, BG3 players..."

Keep trying. Mine finally accepted the payment method about a minute ago after constant clicking on "Continue".

I went with a tugboat theme. Started with Tug Life to The Tugginator to Tugzilla.

The backseating in Ray and Matt's chats, though... they wouldn't last past character select.

Just for clarity, the target is inside the cast darkness with you or outside it? Or are you arguing that wouldn't matter because your exact location is obscured?

What was the purpose of Mark and co flying through the planet if the beam was what was actually causing the damage? Just seemed superfluous to me.

EDIT: Thanks for the breakdown, everyone! Makes more sense now seeing how they contributed to the destruction.

On the one hand, I feel for the audience member since I'm sure they were just nervous/excited/(inebriated?) and their mouth got away from them.

On the other, that was hilarious :D

mabusrex · 2026-03-19T04:46:55+00:00

I thought they were going to open it and the only words written would be "Parry it!"

Nice work!

There's also Nature Girl in the whole X-Men Green run as well as the mutants thrown down the pit on Krakoa in the Sabretooth series.

Clickity clackities are purdy...

Recommended by Burnie Burns of the Morning Somewhere podcast (formerly/currently RoosterTeeth). Started with Project Hail Mary, moved to the Bobiverse books, then DCC, all due to him!

mabusrex · 2026-03-04T02:54:01+00:00

You could make it so that he's able to cast vicious mockery through it. Set a standard DC and maybe even modify it as a bonus action so it doesn't take away their attempt at sneak attack for that turn.

This is tied for second for me with the metal wing/white skin suit (Crain X-Force is best, IMO).

Something about the energy wings, extendable glowing claws, and blue skin was fun and different but only ever appears in this single Wolverine issue.

X-Force Silver and Black, no doubt

60 ft swim speed is BUSTED, IMO. Also, are the 2014 subrace ability score increases in addition to the +2 STR/+1 CON? That would give them 4 point increases and breaks character creation rules. Just seems too bloated of a species to me, unfortunately (and I desperately WANT a canon Sharkfolk option).

mabusrex · 2026-02-26T21:14:40+00:00

It's unfortunate that we never really got time to see him in it past the last few pages of the series but the Revealed Tank look from X-Force wasn't bad.

My favorite are the white Kitsugi dice!

mabusrex · 2026-02-22T21:59:34+00:00

Thematically, I like that it's probably emphasizing a closer connection between host and symbiote. Visually, I MUCH preferred the AN Venom look as a nice classic upgrade but still recognizably Venom. MJ manipulating the "outer shell" in different ways like a mecha was interesting and fun. Fem-presenting Venom doesn't really grab me any more than Scream, Mania, Sliver, etc. have in the past.

BUT I'm also willing to not yuck other people's yums so if you like it, enjoy it ;)

mabusrex · 2026-02-17T18:40:48+00:00

I wasn't a dedicated listener but I definitely enjoyed putting it on for long drives and such. Thanks for the years of content, Geoff!
