in a very cool move, Starkid will be sharing a WIP version of my Nerdy Prudes Must Die project during their 4/27 "Pitstop In Hatchetfield" Livestream! It'll be part of the fundraising stream for CINDERELLA'S CASTLE, their new epic fantasy musical (WITH PUPPETS!)
Catch the stream starting at noon PST tomorrow, Saturday April 27th, and enjoy the 85% finished version of my project along with other Hatchetfield themed goodies!!
My dad just said: at your age you’ll probably wanna try a lot of things. Boys, girls, being a girl, being a boy, being punk or goth or spunky. And im okay with that. As long as you don’t come home and tell me youre a republican
As it is Passover again, it is time for the annual debate as to whether the frog plague, which thanks to a quirk in the Hebrew, is written as a plague of frog, singular, rather than the plural, plague of frogs, was in fact, as generally imagined, a plague of many frogs, or instead a singular giant Kaiju frog. This is an ancient and venerable argument that actually goes back to the Talmud because this is what the Jewish people are. If we can't argue for fun about this sort of thing, what are we even doing.
In that spirit, I would like to submit a third possibility, which is that in fact it was one perfectly normal sized frog, who was absolutely acing Untitled Frog Game: Ancient Egypt Edition. One particularly obnoxious frog, who through sheer hard work, managed to plague all of Egypt.
[Warlock is consentually possessed by the Ghost of a Paladin who needs to make the "final blow" against a Beholder to be free of his curse. The Beholder is already wounded from Wizard's spells and the party's Paladin's smite. ]
Warlock: Well [Ghost Paladin] I know this isn't your usual fighting style and I kinda wanted to let you borrow my Shadow Blade for this but I hope you don't mind terribly if we just finish this quickly especially for the sake of Monk [frightened] and the Githzerai [several near misses with the disintegration ray]. Since you're possessing me even if I call down the power of my patron upon it this will still count as the "Final Blow," right?
Ghost Paladin: Yes.
Warlock: [*summons Bigby's Hand Tentacles and the Fathomless Tentacles and unleashes them all on the Beholder to devastating effect.*]
Warlock: Are you still doing okay, [Ghost Paladin]? Wanna do the honors of crushing this asshole?
Ghost Paladin [cheerfully]: Oh verily!
[*The Beholder dies Screaming*]
Ghost Paladin: Ah, peace at last.... *Fades away. *
DM: Warlock is no longer possessed.
Warlock: Awwww... he seemed nice, I think I'll miss him.
