Anna, this is my favorite episode now hands down. The way you interacted with the void monk had me cracking up and your quick wit was very entertaining. Cant wait to watch the next ones!
Full disclosure. At the start, I wasn't fond of Anna. She seemed rather pushes. Like she was going to argue to have it her way regardless of the rules. But specifically from this episode, my opinion is completely changed. Great role playing. A thoughtful approach. Actual communication. Not just threats, random violence, and other thuggery. Anna, I apologize for my initial appraisal of you.
While I agree that she turned around how she went about playing - in an awesome and incredibly entertaining way I'd add - I thought it was almost fitting that the pirate of the party was intimidating people for their tables and stealing a bounty in loot. Great role-playing all around, Anna is killing it!
You are very cavalier about Trixie originally initiating the violence at the docks, ... but then again attempted murder is of course beyond petty thuggery.
I think more got accomplished in this 30 minutes than in the past 3 episodes. Good job, Anna! Also, Sinjon's Shatner-like speech pattern is oddly fitting for someone unused to talking.
22:55 HAHAHAHAHA!~The Void Monk is the RU-vid comments section brought to life!!! Anna, you absolutely shined in this, I can see you becoming the voice of reason direction and leadership within your band of anarchists, and I love it. Keep it up!
one my favorite session so far... ive been hard on Anna, but i really enjoyed her play and quick wit. i think this one on one will greatly benefit her coming back to the party. loved her chemistry with the void monk as well. well played trixie
Trixie's awakened mind ability would let her communicate with her familiar when she gets one so long as it can understand at least one language. Wouldn't work on a cat, but would work great with a pseudodragon. And a pseudodragon familiar gives you advantage on all saving throws against magic as long as it is within 10 feet of you and can hide like a chameleon in addition to having a poisonoud tail stinger, wings and what are essentially clawed hands on their front legs so the can grab and use things. As well as letting you see and hear what they see and hear from up to 240 yards away. Can only get one with the Pact of the Chain warlock class feature at level 3 though.
jrvthatsme very true!! If I went with pact of the chain, I'm thinking I'd go with pseudodragon for sure- besides the points you raise here, dude. It's a pseudodragon. It doesn't get cooler than that.
And it's about the same size as a cat, with a 2 foot long stinger tail,wings and a dragon's neck. They like to perch up on the shoulders of their companion/friend.
I just love the void monk, silenced or talking through his mind! And the fact that Anna midway figured that she should probably ask his name now that he is no longer the 'grey robe' dude xD
I'm stuck in Beijing unable to leave my house so I started binging this series a couple of days ago to get a better understanding of how to play D&D and to pass the time. Just wanted to say I have enjoyed every episode so far and really love what you guys are doing. That said, this episode in particular has had me laughing out loud throughout. Loving the banter between Trixie and Sinjon. Thanks for the raising my spirits guys! 😁
This girl's role-playing potential explodes in this episode. She really transmits a lot of involvement, remembers many details, takes into account many factors of the situation at the time, etc... I love seeing the evolution they have had through this adventure. I always remember the cat she wanted, I wonder if the DM will reward her in the future.🐈
The boat was just a trainwreck, it was fun to watch the after effects Post mid vid edit: wow i made this comment before watching the vid, didn't expect bill to also call itna trainwreck 😂👌
@@77SilentAssassin77 The answer is "sort of". I have done private paid games before, but the in-person situation is heavily impacted by COVID and travel restrictions. I'm not really allowed to travel anywhere or I get put in the penalty box at my job. BUT, I have been doing paid private games over Zoom, so if that's something you'd be interested in exploring, email me and I can send you my rates. thebillallan {at} gmail [[dot]] com
i know this is an old video, but just seeing the dice roll containers like what she's using now, i can't help but think about that guy that does woodworking (sorry, i cant remember their names for the life of me) and he has been providing these stuff for them all. it's just wholesome to me.
Sean aka Willie Stroker! Yes, Sean is doing very well for himself. He actually combined his love (and skill) of woodworking with automotive restoration. He now works for a company in Miami restoring vintage cars.
@@BillAllanWorld that is so great to know! i'm glad he's doing great for himself. I have a woodworking hobby myself and I've been cheering for him the whole season. I love that he uses his carpentry proficiency any time he can.
@@scatz4994 Yeah, he's pretty amazing. He did some automotive restoration on an old model T (or maybe model A) Ford, where he rebuilt the wooden frame and paneling AND rebuilt the metal chassis and engine.
Its so uncomfortable to watch with headphones because their voices are switched, u hear bill on the right side and anna on the left, if u dont see the video its okay tho
I love that she's a Goolock pirate. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn. IA! IA! FHTAGN! Welcome to the cult, matey! EIDT: But what pact though... pirate makes me think Blade, but she seems like she really wants a cat familiar. Questions abound!
I know this is basically by accident, but I LOVE the reverb on Bill when he's playing as the void monk/grey dude, it sounds just like telepathic "floating voice" and it's awesome! Edit: lol, at 5:40 (right after I had paused) he adds the muffled voice thing. It sounded fine before that anyway! haha. It deadens the incidental reverb from the walls, so it sounds less floaty! Argh! Anyway, it's the thought that counts.
