Mages: ALWAYS in the middle of the action! ;3

indeed

I just absolutely love that hand of the mare's...wow I mean god it looks REALLY good.

its a stallion/colt. its two boys

...wow that's what I get for not paying attention, so sorry XD that HAND distracted me, it's so GORGEOUS

This pretty much sums me up when I play d&d. My old character had a sheild that said "roller of the Ones" in latin on it.
I love this!!

I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My DM used a % Chart to figure out what happens. >_> Seemed much more effective IMO.

I know how this feels xD

at least hes cute :P

We own that black dragon figure as well. :3 Also I feel your pain, I've had similar luck in my time.

This... I don't even x3 Awesome work! Makes me miss being able to play...

I'd laugh if this weren't the story of my life. :P

I'm very much the dude on the right when it comes DnD. Never played, no idea how it works.

Perhaps equines are better at physical challenges. :)

It can be worse when failing with a melee, then you could drop something heavy like a giant hammer on your foot and do damage to yourself as well as waste a turn to pick it back up.
Which is why I always have a back up weapon. I do this with a mage as well, Also stick with the Magic Missile.

Melee fighter critical fail: Drop something heavy on your foot

Mage critical fail: DESTROY THE ENTIRE PLANET

I think it's worse for mages.

On the other hand, you won't feel it for very long if the planet blows up. You'll be feeling that hammer for hours.

...that is a very fair point!

Another thing with melee, you could end up killing one of your party members by having a blade slip from your hand and stab into their chest. But that depends on whether the DM you have is a good DM or a cruel DM that to bone you.

Cruel DMs are the best DMs. <3

a-hahaha, i still have those figures from when I played DDM competitively XD were you given refs for the figures to use or just found them on your own?

I found them myself :3

good choices! and obviously well done if I could recognize them after not having played in a couple of years XD

BATTLETECH S BETTER! lol

but i also play teh D&D lvl. 4 samurai

NEWB >w>

EPIC FAIL :)

Heh, you're playing with a sort of 'exploded' critical failure. For us, a 1 backfires. Whether it harms us, a teammate, or everything really just depends on context.

I do miss playing exploding criticals though. Something magical about rolling 3 20's in a row and wiping out a room or sub-boss single handedly.

o hell ya, i miss it too. my bro used play in a group in collage with a guy who's dice love him even if he wasn't there. the DM hated it, he would pit them against a boss that was like 30 lvl's over and this guy nat 20 it to death. i check his set and they weren't rigged, the damn things just seemed to love him

I actually rolled THREE 1's in a row once... >.> Yeeeeaaaah... bad things happened...

Pity they aren't playing any of the games by Target Games (ex: Chronopia), where snake eyes is a very, VERY good thing usually resulting in one hell of a pissed off opponent :P

You just made my D&D group and I very amused. X3

And that is how my Worgen Wizard, Charr barbarian (I played with some homebrew characters at the start) and my horribly cursed Dwarf fighter ended up tiny piles of dead. Luckily my cleric hasn't rolled a critical fail on anything super important :D


Looks great~ I definitely got a laugh out of it. :P

For some reason I picture what would happen if Lina Inverse were to fall a roll on the Dragon Slave.

Even when she DOESN'T fail you should run for the hills! I don't think I wanna know what'll happen if she FAILS!!

HAHA. That came out great!

Oh shit he gone to DIE BIG TIME XD

Hahaha! As a D&D player, I know how much that can suck, as well as playing with a newbie who doesn't understand the rules. XD Great job!

Roll for sadness.

Critical fail xD

This came out great!!! Love the expressions and just everything about this one =D

If we roll 1 on attack and anything under 5, we consult the big ugly mean table of lost limbs and major catastrophes. (We have a deck devoted to it) and it's been pretty mean to us!

All I have to say is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiTEHqAeanw

I had a similar situation once, though it wasn't a critical fail because of the dice.

So I'm playing a ranger, we wander into a cave. Eventually we find the big big room where we find a dragon. (I'm new to DND at this point) The group leader tells me "Take a shot, then take cover behind a pillar". I take a shot, hit his nose.... Take another shot and make it blind in 1 eye. Now I'm not allowed to move =(. The dragon gets to counter attack or something... it's an acid dragon... I'm put into the negative. Dragon's turn, the rest of my team are in a position that puts me right between them, and the dragon. Acid breath.... twice.... I'm left behind as a puddle.

I would so be the horse in this situation. lol!

ROLF that's was me the first time I played D&D!

SNAKE EYESSSSSS I WIN *slaps the dragon to the ground and goes psycho for a while, flis off neighbors while yelling "yeaaaahhhh boiiii", then sits back down with a calm sigh. * I lost didnt I...?

WOW! The last D&D I played was five years ago, and epic campaign up Level 30 pure Psionic Psychokinetic Changling. My GM actually had to beef up the campaign because I was the only non multiclass and for just a few power points, I killed hordes of things. You know .... burst them into flames, chain lightning, throwing them back wards so that the archers could pick them off and they could not approach us. =)

But now a days all my friends and I have supported a new system that I designed where all that is needed is one book, the game host has one type of dice, and the game is focused more on story telling and role play than volumes of volumes of books and details. I found 10 hours to get through one dungeon should not happen every game. Especially when 5 hrs is one battle.

Yeah... this brings back memories.

That one book sounds like a much easier and simpler way to play (and learn too)

I've ran my first campaign with it for 5 years. It was a good success.
The final version is being edited and with in a couple of years I'm hoping to have it on the market.

that's how my first wizard died. White dragon.

Also, I love the little furry figures. WANT.

Hahah nice show of nerdyness here XD

My friends haven't decided on if to have this or not

*sighs wistfully* Ahhh...that takes me back.

And yes, critical failures can be VERY bad. ^.^

D8
No. Just... no.
*puts his head in his hands*
A+ for exuberance. D for understanding...

Lol!

This one gave me a good chuckle. Well done!

I must refer you to an image in my gallery, where I sadly announced the death of one of my characters. Because this exact situation happened to me. We were playing Pathfinder, and I was playing a Vanaran (read:monkey) Monk. There was a thing in the dark, and I was trying to sneak close to it to see what it was. I rolled a 1. It woke up, and turned toward me. At this point I see that it is a very large thing indeed, one we couldn't possibly hope to beat. so I attempted to run. DM had me roll a reflex save. I rolled a 1. Monk slipped in the sewer slime and fell on their back, prone and helpless, rendering their AC a mere 10, nice and low for that thing to swallow her whole.

My rage flowed heavily for some time to follow....

My only critical fail in my Pathfinder campaign as a witch.. and I ended up putting my scythe through the chest of the guy who was roleplaying as my bodyguard. ^^; It.. took a while to live that one down. (Raising the entire party from the dead over the course of the adventure helped. :) )

I once played a campaign where I was a rogue with a shortbow. My DM described my Critical Hit (Two rolls of 20) as leaping into the air, flipping a la the Matrix, shooting while upside down and backflipping, and sending an arrow straight through an enemy's head.

That is probably my most memorable moment in D&D.

Roll new character
