This is my 3rd listen through for the podcast, only now realizing that Beverly has remove curse that he tries to use on the mythril armor and Murphy just said bev could become a vamp because it's a curse so technically couldn't bev just remove curse and make this nightmare stop lol

Nils Lübke

I'm so glad I started listening to this holy crap

Featherweight

I get why they feel like Deadeye tricked them but like he was really up front and basically flat out said “we are going to a sketchy place to make a sketchy deal with sketchy people. P.s. I actively hate everyone in this town and do not care what happens to them.”

Joe Howard

This is so late lol, but I’m just listening to this now(loving it btw) but hard won admitted he was a virgin in the zone of truth but he played it off later by saying that he meant it as like he’s never made love, only had meaningless sex

Donoiw

I knew not to bring these dummy thicc milkshakes to the yard.

Donoiw

Hardwon's vampire name suggestion: "Make it Dropula". Being dummy thicc, and all

M Bee

Nothing on this gigantic lava gumball screaming through space has ever been funnier than Brennan growling, "So stupid, bringing those two double-thick asses in here. Such an oversight, dammit. Those boys are DUMMY THICC!"

Dan

-3 for a wild animals athletics!? Unrealistic, unforgivable, unsubscribed. Love the podcast!

The Silversmith

Revivify reverses vampirism within one minute of being bitten.

Joelle H

WHERE WAS BALNOR?! hahahaha

Victoria Shotts

But how??

Danielle Brooke Darville

You guys are geniuses

Eva Vasileiadou

Wtf I thought Cooter was a bullywug this whole time

Amanda Barrett

Just popping in ~1 yr late to say that describing Spike from Buffy "crackhead buff" made me laugh and cry all at once. Nothing but love for my waifish peroxide king!

1man2hands

It's still so funny to me that Hardwon would be tan, having lived in a mountain his whole life

D&D Lemur

They were still going to take hardwon though...

Emily

I’m currently in Starbucks cackling at that Hamilton wink. Caldwell Tanner, a modern day jester genius.

Silver

It was moonshines fault hardwon died! Freakin deadeye had that whole good plan with tricking them about Bev being the other vampires property, they would've been fine, and then she goes and ruins that by starting combat again with the wave! Stupid!

Austin lauer

but like, this whole episode was 19/10. i'm just trying to fill in canon so disregard as necessary

Austin lauer

hey, I believe that hardwon admitted that he was a virgin in frostwind when he was under the zone of truth when they were talking to Gina.

Francis Wynn

I don't know a lot about 5e, but based on my experience w/other editions and Pathfinder, I'd be drooling at the chance to play an undead character of any kind. Carpe Diem, Jake.

Bat-Fran

I care....SO much more about this than GoT right now....

Mike McKee

Stakes hurt but make everything SO much better when they are real. I am sorry there was undue noise you guys had to deal with. Calling unwarranted criticism a "vocal minority" doesn't make it go away. The only cure (other than more cowbell) is for the silent majority to make some noise. So...doubling my patreon support as a show of solidarity with everything you guys do. It makes my 2 hours in the car every day livable.

Tj Penn

King's Hammer -> Queen's Hammer-> (Skarsgard) Jack Hammer

tkstrider

I believe there is but it it's a very high level spell requiring a high level cleric

BigFred78

Is there anyway to cure Hardwon? Or to cure Vampirism? It ruined my night hearing that Hardwon is dead :(

shane morris

Uhm, did murph possibly just hint that Cobb is Deadeye's daddy?

Mark

You're a thinker

Garga Lenoir

So apparently some people are attacking Emily over that in game debacle? Not only is that insane since she's the most strategic Boob (that tidal wave could have given Hardwon more than enough time to flee without legendary actions/initiative sheaningans), but also don't attack people for a game! That bullshit is probably why they don't visit us anymore on the subreddit...

thedragonllama

Ok... hear me out. Murph mentioned around the 20min mark that Hardwon can be freed by killing Scarlett... OR by doing a blood ritual mutually drinking eachother's blood... What if Scarlett, instead of just being another band of boobs enemy… becomes a Hardwon love interest? It could be a strange but very “Shadowfell Emo” way for the character to explore his, uh, inexperience, as well as potentially challenge his mixed feelings with the unavailable Gemma. Also, the tension that would happen between Moonshine and Scarlett would be so palpable if suddenly Hardwon was dating her, even potentially becoming a temp party member. Just a crazy thought, a potential way to challenge Hardwon and the party hahaha.

A. Godfrey

Rofl. True

JBeev

Again...

A. Godfrey

Hardwon died a virgin.....

Rose Turck

Okay am I the only one that thought, as soon as the Vampirism happened, "oh Galad could totally make Hardwon suck his dick now." They brought it up a bit on the short rest but still, that was my first thought, and I don't know what that says about me.

Talbert Tso

I main healers in mmo-rpg games so yeah Healers Guilt is a a thing. I think it would be a good storyline if the Boobs have to get Hardwon to Alanis and she has a crazy ritual or machine to de-vampire him.

Sand Panda

Yos... that GoT theory mentioned would be dope.

Humble Goblin

Let brennan on short rest you cowards!

Canid

I see Hardwon looking like Blood Omen's Kain. Legacy of Dracwon? While his mom is like Raziel from Soul Reaver. Lols.

Leondatwani

I have definitely felt that healers guilt. When everyone else is just getting knocked down and you have like more then 50HP just sucks.

BlurryVizion

SMG was like, every other boys crush for a hot minute there lol.

BlurryVizion

They'll all have the same tan for the pool 🤣

Dave Johnson

Loving the Buffy The Vampire slayer and Blade love going on. Seems like the majority of people I talk to scratch their heads when I mention Buffy

All Pulp! No Juice!

What will the dwarf daddies think of vampire hardwon?

Matthew Atkins

Nope! Greater Restoration doesn't work on Vampirism. The only way to change them back is to use a Wish spell...or even simpler just kill them and bring them back to life. Moonshine has access to Reincarnation and Beverly has access to Revivify. So they literally just need to kill him and bring him back with Revivify.

Brittany Bee

Emily, I have played a druid, cleric, and bard in my three games, and fell to being at least a part-time healer in each one. Feel absolutely terrible anytime a character that isn't mine is downed or killed, the guilt is real. Then my cleric died and I didn't feel bad about it until the party warlock made a bad deal with his patron to bring her back. So now I feel guilty about that, too. I think it's just being invested in the well-being of your friend's characters that you grow to love after so long spent with them. So when you put that healer mantle on yourself and something bad happens, you wind up asking yourself 'why couldn't I do my job, keeping them up and safe is my job'.

Kestrel

Okay a question...Murph, you said here that vampirism was technically a curse, and Moonshine cast Greater Restoration on Hardwon in the ep. Doesn't Greater Restoration remove curses?

Tittyaana

Just a thought... Grimhawk sounds a lot like Greyhawk,Deadeye is some form of Undead , Deadeyes "Symbol" are a hand and an eye and he screws around with Vampires... am I getting some Vecna vibes here ;) (also Brennan had mentioned on Drawfee he already used him in a campaign as DM)

Mark

Oh shitt

Eagledink

Cobb is deadeyes dad.

Matthew Atkins

I just started the episode, not the Short Rest, but I wanted to post my theory that just came into my head after Murphs little recap....Deadeye said there are no good guys in Shadowfell....how far does that go Deadeye? You've been in the Shadowfell for quite some time, and so does that apply to only those native to the Shadowfell or those who have been there for a while?
