Riz and the Mirror (aka Romaence Partnaer) - Fantasy High - Dimension 20 

"Do you approach the mirror in a way that your reflection is visible?" Is incredibly threatening in a very low key way.

A lesson in never giving Brennan anything unless you want pain. You make a dumb goof about a fake boyfriend once and suddenly you’re in a horror story.

"It is not my fault I am born of lies" is a raw ass line

I love how soft and adorable Brennan became when everyone told him he was scary

"what- whaT aRe You DOING yOu WeiRd litTlE sKelEtOn BoY?!"

aroace goblin is taunted by the gender-neutral nightmare manifestation of his fear of romantic relationships (not clickbait)

“We went to HELL and it wasn’t even this bad”

After the gang called the Corn Gremlins cute Brennan started to plot his revenge...

Zach's "can we be done" comment had me rolling.

“You immediately know that your reflection is wrong.” HOW. THATS SUCH A SCARY LINE. HOW.

"I'm a camp counselor, so if I can't tell scary stories, what good am I?" Brennan just seriously creeped me out for nearly ten minutes then immediately after made me go "aww!" out loud. This man has far too much power.

“YOU HAVE BEEN NAUGHTY THRICE” LORD

2:49 Emily: [whispering] jump in the mirror Lou: [laughs] [Running motion] [diving motion] Emily: [diving motion] Zac: [Looks at Emily] [Diving motion]

I have never once in my life when imagining a scary accent thought “french canadian” and _yet?_ brennan lee mulligan is a powerful mind

I deeply admire Brennan's ability to turn simple one-time Murph gags into big scary plot points First it was Baron, then the Night Yorb, now I really wanna see what bit makes Murph regret he ever did it on Junior Year lol

Travis Willingham would be having the absolute worst time of his life if he was there

This was such a good scene and I know it was killing Murph when he had to keep to canon and not react like he normally would.

oh to be a terrified camper listening to Brennan Lee Mulligan telling scary stories

Lou's constant terrified fidgeting is honestly so relatable

This is what happens when you go into a season about the Nightmare King and don't think the words "Nightmare King" are anything more than a flavored way to say Evil Bad Guy. Welcome to Nightmare Town! Let's get dark and spicy!

At any given time I am thinking about the raw power in the line "It is not my fault I am born of lies, it is the fault of the deceiver"

Lesson here is if you get any concept of a trap from a mirror in a fantasy setting, either get out of there or lay it reflective side down.

Zac's little "can we be done?" never fails to make me laugh

Römance Pærtner....

It's fun watching the players react. Emily's shudder, Murph's going look of disgust. Siobhan upright horror face. Ally Beardsley's weird looks flipping between delight and disgust. And probably most disturbing Zac Oyama and Lou seeming to be mellow and enjoying, only to have those visceral physical reactions at the end.

I love that Baeron is French Canadian. XD

What goes on in Brennan’s head? Dude goes from haha fun times to WTF 3000.

LOVE this moment!! I don't often get scared while watching RPG shows like Fantasy High, but this scene genuinely was creepy. Also Lou's reactions are hilarious!! Thanks for posting this :D

Just saying, the first I watched this I was genuinely terrified, alone, in my office, working a little late and binging fantasy high and then this piece of eldritch horror just drops out of Brennan's mouth and into my consciousness. I was just like, nope, peace out y'all *chucks dueces* I'm done

Murph used all his high rolls in a scripted fight.

Two and a half years later, and Brennan's love of mirrors has now terrified Travis Willingham as well 😂

watching lou react to all of this is the best shit possible

Can we just appreciate Brennan here for a minute? He's an amazing story teller and he kept the tension so high and made this fucking terrifying. Like, give this man an Oscar PLEASE

This was genuinely a harrowing experience and I doubt I’ll ever recover

"I pull out my..................Gun."

"People went to _hell_ and it wasn't that bad." - Lou Wilson

But who will give me a comp of every time Brennan makes Lou just so upset 😂

Lou was me that whole episode tbh

4:50 Zach's reaction is so good xp

The Lord Fauntleroy wig is what did me in.

I love how genuinely scared Lou Wilson is XD

lou’s reactions whenever murph is role playing as The Ball off on his own are always so good

The fact that the new season they announced is supposed to be the horror one fills me with a lit of dread.

This scene was seriously so scary.

I love and hate how stressed ally and Lou are lol

I don't know what's creepier, Brennan's description of Baron or the way he says romance partner as Baron

Emily’s reaction at 7:07

Baron was the first clip I ever saw of D20 and I’ve been a major fan since. They may be born of lies but they did introduce me to these maniacs.

This bit genuinely terrified me

Who else wants a römäncë pærtnêr named Baron?

I loved Baron so much, I wish he showed up more. Horror is my jam, so this nightmare encounter is just gorgeous

i mean... can you actually imagine going away to camp as a kid, getting away from home and the city and being out of your element and sitting around a fire and Brenan tells the scary story to the group after sundown? scars for life friends. mental scars and therapy

Watching Lou freaking the fUCK out is making this entire thing for me

If Brian and Emily are ever in a real-life argument, she should break into this accent. He'll know he's in trouble when she says, "You should be very careful about saying such hurtful things, Riz Gukgak."

YOU HÆVE BEEN NÄUGHTY THRÏCE RÏZ GÜKGÆK!!!!!

I'm not gonna lie I was watching Lou through all of this. His reactions are just so fun, I love him

god i wish i had a roémænce pårtnèr

The one downvote is from Murph

Baron is the scariest Römæñce Pærtñer Ive ever seen

Shoutout to Planescape Torment, the first game I've heard of where false identities can come into existence like a tulpa. (If you lie about your name enough times, that lie forms against you)

This would make an excellent short film.

Brennan ran an entire season of nightmare fairy tales, with some of the most horrifying scenes in D20 history ("...the smile of a devil you never believed in..."), but this is still the most frightening D20 moment.

I hate mannequins so much and this did not help!!!! But truly awesome job on both Brennans and Murphs parts

i have watched this clip more than any other clip of Dimension 20

I wish I could watch this scene for the first time again... The part about the pressure against the other side of the mirror sent chills down my spine

I honestly want to see this animated

We stan a rømænce pærtnẽr who knows his own worth

"O hai Riz"

Lou's expressions throughout the entire segment were the best, especially near the start before the mirror

LOVE that, sooooooo much, watched the episode and so muchly enjoy reliving the scene, it is freaky as helllllll! wicked awesome.

Wouldn't there be an easy way to overcome this nightmare being (never saw fantasy high so im not sure but based on what baron and riz said i think this would work)? Telling more lies to make baron more real and grounded in riz's favor. It is what baron wants, so work it in your favor. When prompted to do whatever he wants couldn't riz ask to make a call? "Hey Fabian, its the ball. Im leaving the clue on my desk. I just caught up with my romance partner Baron and may not be avaliable for a while. He is so sweet and kind always going out of his way to protect me and keep me safe. we are going to get ice cream maybe do some dancing after. Oh don't worry Fabian, baron's a loving being, a great spellcaster, and would never purposely hurt me. How about you grab your romance partner and we have a double date. I really want to show off my man... sorry romance partner" Boom. Party knows Riz is in danger, well Fabian but he can let the others know. Baron has more lies that he (and dm Brendan) must abide by. And even if brendan improvs danger for riz, baron must try to help riz and keep him safe without harming him. Also Baron gets to go get ice cream and the others could catch up and do a "double date" to ensure riz's safety.

Brennan is in the prime of his life and I am so happy to see it. The way he GM's these games are a real delight to watch.

I've watched this three or four times and it's STILL intense and scary!

This scene never fails to give me shivers😳

I love this so much ugh oh my god

This was so eerie

Remember what we've learned today everyone: If something creepy is IN the mirror, do not break it or you'll let it OUT

Why am I watching this before going to sleep? Creepy as hell.

Lou and Zac just freaking out in the background the whole time 🤣

This is legit so fucking scary and I hope Brennen knows that.

Those poor kids coming back from camp emotionally scarred

And this all came from a dumb fake story about having a romance partner.

YoU have to TRAT your Rromance Partner better

You know sometimes the time this pops into my head. And every time I watch it and start wheezing with laughter because this is a scene of my friend and I think about quite a lot her and I will be sitting in my living room we will just look at each other and say riz gukgak. Like Brendan Lee Mulligan when voicing Baron and we burst into fifth of hysterical laughter for like 45 minutes and we cannot look at each other we think about the scene this moment in Time way too much 😂

Brennan Lee Mulligan is so good at horror

This is one of many Brennan clips that live in my head rent free

I have to say i like how the frames are missing from this clip you put up, something about it made watching their simultaneous reactions a bit easier? Like theres less distance in each frame. Kudos!

this is how zoomed in it shouldve been for the whole season

I wish I knew the score playing in the background. I would love to use it to create tension during my campaigns

7:47 "Why don't you do what you most want to do." "Leave?"

Lou's reactions are so fucking cute I love him

5:54 The whole tables' reactions when he say "My name is Baron" and they realize that's his "made up girlfriend" is priceless. Ally seriously looks like she's freaking out! 😄

One entire side of the table cringing at the little lord Fauntleroy curls is sending me

This made me laugh so hard - idk why it was scary

The way that Brennan smoothly manipulates Murph as this goes on so the office is set up properly for the time we saw the aftermath in the previous episode is so freaking satisfying. I keep going back to this scene because of that and because it’s also being done during one of the best and scariest scenes in all of D20 while barely ever being recognized.

my stark father ???

That was… bone chilling.

The Christoph Waltz jumped out

The timing of the drums at 6:16! Did Brennan start a new track there, or did things just line up?
