The D&D Irish Drinking Song


(in the style of “Whose Line Is It Anyway?”)



All: Ohhhh, aye-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di!


#1: We gathered ‘round the table

#2: with all our books and all our dice

#3: with pizza, chips and Mt. Dew

#4: (We drink it without ice).

#1: We’re all a little geeky.

#2: We’re all a little strange.

#3: The game is called D&D

#4: And it is what we play!

 

All: Ohhhh, aye-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di!

#1: Thank you, Gary. Thank you, Dave.

#2: For these worlds of dwarves and elves.

#3: The books you wrote fill up my room

#4:  And my groaning shelves.

#1: I don’t worship Satan.

#2: I swear I’m not a witch.

#3: but I wish I had a girlfriend

#4: so I could touch her…lips.

 

All: Ohhhh, aye-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di!

#1: Let me tell you ‘bout my wizard.

#2: He’s level Twenty-Four.

#3: He’ll reduce your bones to goo

#4: and leave you lying on the floor.

#1: He is a righteous king, 

#2: Subtle and quick to anger,

#3: but his power is next to nothing

#4: compared to my level Thirty Ranger!

 

All: Ohhhh, aye-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di!

#1: The Holy Grail, The Princess Bride,

#2: The Fellowship of the Ring,

#3: Lines from these movies we do quote

#4: As we do our gaming thing!

#1: So step right up and take a seat.

#2: There’s always room for more

#3: And we will make you one of us

#4: As we quest for loot and more!

 
All: Ohhhh, aye-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di!
All: Ohhhh, aye-dee-di-dee-di-dee-di-dee-diiii-deeee-diiii-deeee-diiii!

Smoke Powder Golem

Smoke Powder Golem                                     CR13 (Original drawing of Smoke Powder Golem)   A Smoke Powder Golem is a blending of technology and the divine magic of Gond created to serve as temple guardians.   On average, the golem stands 12’ tall and weighs 8,000 pounds.   The smoke powder golem resembles the more common Iron Golem except its right arm has been replaced with the thick barrel of a bombard.   A large “backpack” has been built onto the golem and contains the ammunition for the golem’s cannon (internal magazine of six shells).   Firing the cannon causes the next shell to automatically, move into the firing chamber.   The golem smells of oil and sulfur.   N Large Construct Init: -1; Senses: Listen +0, Spot +0 Languages: Understands the langua...

Beldam (Other Mother from Coraline)

Image
I watched the movie “ Coraline ” for the first time this weekend.   Don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen snippets of the film here and there over the years and I recognized the character when the movie started but I have never sat down and Watched the movie (or read the book).   By the time the show was over, I have to admit that I was fascinated by the entire thing.   The animation and pacing were incredibly well done and the main antagonist was delightfully wicked.   This is who I want to focus on today – Beldam, a.k.a. the Other Mother.   Some viewers may think that she was some sort of demon, offering children their heart’s desire in exchange for their souls, much like a crossroads demon but I feel like she more closely resembles a faerie, a member of the Unseelie Court who is allowed a great deal of independence in her operations.   I also think that since the protagonist, Coraline, was just a child that Beldam wouldn’t necessarily have been overly power...

The Magic of Mario-World Power-Ups for D&D

Image
Not so very long ago, one of my kids suggested that I write a blog post about using the Power-Ups from the Mario Brothers franchise.   Now, to be honest, the last Mario game I played was Super Mario 3 back whenever it came out but I thought, “Sure, why not?”   Well, it turns out that the number of Power-Ups has expanded exponentially in my almost 30 year absence.   Seriously, at the time of this writing, there’s like SEVENTY-NINE different ones available and that doesn’t even touch on the banana peels from Mario Kart. That said, instead of trying to stat out all of them, I’m just going to focus on the ones from the Super Mario Brothers game and call it good.   These include the Super Mushroom, the Fire Flower, the Invincibility Star, and the 1-Up Mushroom.   That’s it.   If you want the Penguin Suit, the Raccoon Suit, or a Yoshi, look somewhere else because I’m not going to cover those here. The Super Mushroom is pretty straightforward. ...

A Horse By Any Other Name (Part 6)

Image
One Month after the Summer Solstice (Seventh Moon, 1000 ALB) Ra'ziir follows along beside Foil Hat, "What makes you think this 'Abacus' knows anything about planar travel?" The conspiracy theorist replies, "Oh, he's a wizard, knows all kinds of things about conjurations and summonings. If he doesn't have your answers, he'll probably know who to ask." "My little ponies!" Grotto winnies, "The confection shop is this way! How can we expect to confront this unknown on the word of the paranoid pony? We should surely go to this confectionery and get some information from another source. Are we to trust this one only because it was the first we encountered? More information is needed! We should fill our bellies, get reliable corroborating information there! Are we to blindly trust this one to lead us to a trap in the vulnerable state we are in?!" Grotto insists. "Plus that is where these phillies are!" Grotto thinks to ...

🎶 🎶 He's a Were-House 🎶 🎶 (to the tune of "Brick House")

Image
One of my players recently tagged me in this picture, more or less daring me to see what I could come up with. There are already other versions of this concept out there (I really like this one ). I know that larger versions of Mimics exist and I could convert them to whatever edition of the game we are playing but that would be cheating and doesn't fit the "spirit" of the post. This is what I came up with... Faizard Skitterbrook the Were-House CR: 3     Medium Humanoid (Human/Shapechanger) HD: 3d4    Hp: 8 Init: +1     Spd: 30' AC: 11 (+1 Dex), t: 11, ff: 10 or 15 (+1 Dex, +4 Mage Armor spell) Attacks: (BAB+1/Grap +1) ; +1 Staff: 1d6 (20/x2) or +2 Light Crossbow: 1d8 (19-20/×2, 80') SA: Arcane Spells (CL3; DC12 + spell level; 4/3/2); Improvised Weapons SQ: Transformation Align: CN    Saves: Fort +1, Ref +2, Will +4 Str: 11, Dex: 13, Con: 11, Int: 15, Wi...
