** ABOUT ME **
Hello! My name is Jay, and I am a long-time veteran of storytelling and a semi-seasoned DM! I began playing Dungeons and Dragons roughly 5 years ago and began my first ever game as the DM. I figured things out by watching online games and fumbling my way through the rules, and never looked back! I've fallen in love with TTRPG's in general and want to share my experience and thoughts with the world and community I love so much. I currently DM two separate games regularly, and continue to learn every day.
** ABOUT THE CHANNEL **
Play Your Role is a project with the intention of helping inspire and coach players and DM’s alike to add story beats and dramatic moments into their games through basic writing concepts, interesting player character inspirations, and discussions on how to effectively roleplay in a way that helps (not hinders) everyone else's roleplay at the table!

It has long been a joke in the D20 fan community that Zac plays socially awkward characters as a courtesy to Brennan, because for the short while he played Lapin, a socially savvy schemer with high status in society, he really rocked Brennan's socks. And I will always wish we had gotten to see more of Lapin, especially concerning his relationship to his patron.

What kills me about that moment in the cathedral is the fact that Lapin spends his one and only turn in that round to save as many people as he can. These people who all don't think very highly of him, but he's still come to care about. Liam thinks he's just as boring and stuffy as the princesses do and that Lapin hates him--Lapin steps in front of him to spare him from Keradin's mace. Theo does almost nothing but bicker with him--Lapin casts Fly on him so he can get himself and as many people as he can carry to safety. Lapin went from an annoying and vaguely untrustworthy wild card to a surprisingly selfless and heroic badass in the span of only six episodes, and it was beautiful to watch. Thus far, he's my favorite D20 character in any campaign.

@TheGreatEmerorMu Год назад

Liam rolls insight to see if Lapin hates him or not and believes that He hates him, but in the face of danger, Lapin step up and protect Liam from the carrot, and gave his life to the group. Mannnnnnnn I love this show so much.

Honestly, this death hit me way harder than the other one. Mostly because Lapin's fate should have been the wake-up call for the other character to start taking things more seriously. And they really just didn't, to the point that it got them killed

@srlandauer Год назад

Honestly, it’s not PC death itself that scares me or is unappealing about the game but rather a meaningless PC death that amounts to nothing and just becomes another thing that happened in the campaign. As a storyteller and someone who gets very emotionally invested in my and my party’s characters, that just doesn’t feel right to me. I love when I see examples of people handling it better than the barebones rules do.

@TallionWhittfieldIII Год назад

When I first got into a crown of candy I originally thought oh cool a candyland story and then it quickly escalated and I realized that this was going to be a serious campaign and finally when Zac's character died seeing everybody's faces and watching it happen I broke down in tears it was honestly one of the first times I ever cried for a d&d campaign that I wasn't even a part of

@Danmarinja Год назад

My last campaign (Cyberpunk) ended with the players getting their hands on a nuke, and deciding they wanted to set it off for a laugh. It’s the end of the campaign, why not go out with a bang. It was an admittedly ugly moment and I’m not proud of giving my players a nuke, but on their final mission, one of the characters brought his boyfriend along for the ride, and even though my players thought it would be funny to nuke the city, I knew that the boyfriend wouldn’t be. So one of the last things I described was how he, feeling a sense of desperation and betrayal, did everything he could to outrun the nuke before it detonated, and described his every effort to escape with tears in his eyes. The player who was dating that guy was staring at me with tears in their eyes

@EilonwyG Год назад

I've never seen Crown of Candy, but even your description of the events made me all teary-eyed! Brennan is really good with giving his players the dramatic weight their characters deserve. EXU: Calamady was incredible and that ending was just... It kind of blew ne away. We don't have deaths happen much in our games, but I'd definitely like to take a leaf out of Brennan's book to make any future deaths as meaningful and as powerful as I can.

@SurfTheSkyline Год назад

Allowing players to re-spec into a new subclass after profound events reshape their character is something i think dms need to be more keenly aware as an amazingly gratifying narrative device. Giving Liam a new companion may have worked hypothetically, however it is so much more heartbreaking knowing that they were so traumatized after losing Preston that it fundamentally changed them. The choice of Gloomstalker doesn't feel accidental and both the name and mechanics tell you a great deal about what gears have turned in their mind.

@Ryanookami 9 месяцев назад

Death isn’t frequent in D20, but you are SO right about how well Brennan adapts and honours each death within the narrative. Don’t read past here if you don’t want spoilers for The Unsleeping City s1 Another of my favourite examples is in The Unsleeping City 1, a character essentially “dies”, but for the greater good, their sacrifice being the single thing that saves the party. In what is basically the epilogue Brennan makes room for the character to be able to have one last talk with their previously estranged son, something so incredibly touching and meaningful and it caps off the entirety of the character’s arc by finding that sense of peace after all the mistakes that they had made. It’s honestly why TUC1 is my favourite season, and that particular character is my favourite above all others. Their player also is my favourite for this reason. It really set the standard for me in what the show is capable of. These are all trained comedians, but they also are brilliant beautiful humans and they can tap into that sense of tragedy with the same deftness as their comedy chops. Comedy is often just tragedy as seen from a distance. Thank you so much for this brilliant break down on Lapin’s death and the meaning and beauty that it captured, and the skill of Brennan and Zac both in crafting this shocking and heartbreaking moment.

As a DM I love the idea of giving the players the choice to take an action before their character dies! Whether that is just Final Words, or using an item (or giving an item to another PC). I already implemented final words into my game, but I’m totally gonna follow your homebrew on this. I agree the death save thing is not in favor of Roleplayers (or the RPG aspect of the game).

@CR1TIKAL_20 Год назад

I really appreciate this video. Even though I’m not the DM right now, my campaign is in a serious situation. Think Lord of the Rings ending battle big. Just for context. My lvl12 party has to protect the town of Leilion, a town which we helped rebuild. We got a vision that a green dragon was gonna destroy the town (with a bunch of other stuff that isn’t necessary rn). During this time of prepping, we found out that a gem was hiding in an important tower in the city in a different plane. We travelled there, and found out that the gem was pretty much a Thanos Snap to one person AND it could rewind 5-10 seconds (one action). We could not let the bad guys get it. So my character, knowing the chemistry of the party, sealed his soul into it so that when it gets used it doesn’t work and both him and the stone disappear forever (and has like a 30% to explode). You can probably see where I’m going with this. My character might die soon. I’ve been playing this character weekly for 2 1/2 years. This video has given me ideas for my final words if it comes down to it. I really appreciate you making a video not on CR (not that I have anything against them), but because CR feels more like a show. This feels a little more real for campaigns like mine, with little voice acting but a ton of Roleplay! Excellent video! :)

@chriswalters3028 Год назад

you say that Lapin's death was Brennan explain the stakes to the campaign, to me i see it as a reinforcement of the stakes because to me the stakes are very much explained in the very first combat of the campaign when Siobhan's character takes an arrow to the neck and starts combat in saving throws and once combat starts getting going all the enemies are going for Lou's character as they have a set goal of trying to kill the king. Although the combat ends with no losses what so ever the sheer ruthlessness of the enemies in going for their goal to me is the true stake setter, with the PC deaths that come later driving the stake further and further in.

@activekiwi1221 8 месяцев назад

I think the randomness is great even in character-loss. It let's me appreciate my character and the game more, because I do not like the feeling of plot-armour. One time, we had a "situation" in our party, that escalated into our warlock's archdevil and our cleric's god (moradin) intervening, AT ONLY LEVEL 4!!! In that encounter my already weakened monk got hit by a level 7 Fireball from the archdevil. I were like: "Hmm, seems like I'm downed... Wait... I'm dead... That's over my max-HP threshold." The fight went on and ended with the archdevil fleeing and my DM wanted to let Moradin resurrect me, as it wasn't my fight, but I didn't want that plot-armour, so we let my character die (we said: Moradin didn't resurrect me because he would have to face the consequence in having to explain himself in the pantheon), we had a burial for him and mourned and I came into the next session with the paladin I'm playing now

I couldn't find where the actually relevant information to what the title said started, so I gave up. I'm sure it's a really good video, however if I can't find something that is relevant to the title in the first 4 minutes (I only heard constant backstory on the game, the players and the DM) then I'm not willing to skip through the next 13 minutes to find out that info either

@pleasegoawaydude Год назад

Maybe that's just because you've never read a book in your life and only watch TikTok.

@willsquirrels Год назад

@@pleasegoawaydude What I’m referring to is basic content strategy. I’m fine to sit through 1-2 minutes without addressing what the actual title entails, but 4-6 minutes is half the average length of most youtube videos, and this one is 17 minutes long. If I have to go 4:30 minutes into a video before I can find the beginning of what I want to watch, then the first 4:30 minutes may well not have existed. If you have someone skipping 5 minutes of a 17 minute video, that means at best, you get an AVD of 12 minutes. However, people are fickle and may skip through a bit, or click off the video with a minute or so left in the video. If that’s the case, your AVD could be between 8-10 minutes, which means people aren’t watching 7-9 minutes of your video. This hurts his chances of being pushed by the RU-vid algorithm, and then less people get a chance to watch his video. It sounds harsh in a comment form but I find most people criticizing a creator by saying “This video sucks/is misleading/is boring” which doesn’t actually give them feedback. I didn’t want to give a long in depth comment, so I tried making a comment just to illustrate that the intro into the title information was too long. Other suggestions may be: subway surfers on the screen, a few sound effects, maybe a cat trying out cool hacks… but maybe that’s just me being on TikTok too long ;)
