Romance Partner | Fantasy High Animatic 

i would *love* to do this at some point as a dm, sadly tho my players dont really *do* the whole roleplay thing, and dont have deep characters

@@thatonesentientbagel4043 weed it out, create an encounter with a hag or something that can sorta syphon it out of em. Or not, depends if the players are cool with that or if theyll just try to kill it

You only beat it by becoming a better person. Double win!

@@thatonesentientbagel4043 get better players

You’d love the call of Cthulhu system then

My personal favorite creepy line I've yet to use is "the (n+1) of you continue walking," where n is the number of party members.

@@zackjones8802 Nice

My favorite is "It is the smile of a devil you you do not believe in"

It’s definitely a line that makes anyone pause, even for a brief moment

@@zackjones8802Yeah, that one’s terrifying. I have that one in my back pocket, along with its cousin, “the (n-1) of you keep walking.

Especially because they’re supposed to be like 15😂

The best part was that he was drawn respecting trigger discipline

I would of shot the mirror lmao

What else he gonna whip out

@@topsyturvy1097 magnifying glass

Tratment*

@@aidanmornell2749 yes, thankyou lol

Yo they did. Baron asked him on a date and he shot them. After he called them ugly.

@@aidanmornell2749 Trätmǝnt

@@juliansmeeth-serrano4299 You’re right, all they did was pop in for a surprise visit. Just to say hi and for no other malicious reason at all

The goblin boy lied about having a romænce partner and it manifest

Go watch - Dimension 20. This is from the second season. You won't regret.

More specifically, it's Fantasy High: Sophomore Year. Just pointing this out because Dimension 20 is an anthology series, which can make navigating by seasons kinda tricky.

riz gukgak (the gobin boy) made up a pretend boyfriend/girlfriend to avoid being the only person in the group who wasnt interested in kissing people, he called them baron from the baronies, and this skeleton character is like a manifestation of his insecurities

@@samaxion93 I mean Adine isn't interested in anyone either

I love that line so much.

So Baron is the Weaver of Lies? I just recently got into D&D so I have been reading up on things, this sounded familiar really.

@@melchiorzibeon5024 Baron was a joke character Murph made up because Riz was insecure about never having dated anyone before. Basically a “they go to a different school” type thing. But Brennan just ran with it and made them into a really cool vessel for Riz’s character development in the later half of the season

It’s the coldest line

Such a good line. Brennan is endlessly creative and always dropping great lines like this.

I love that because my thought of the reason why rizz did that in his moment of pure adrenaline and Instinct was because of him being on the owlbear team, and because of him possibly sparing with his friends and other classmates and people on the owlbear team He does it because it’s what they told you to do if it was too much and you needed to tap out, it was drilled into him so no one would unnecessarily get badly injured Which turns what was likely said as a joke into something that makes this situation more horrific

100% - This is my head canon Riz now, and the animation of the tap out is GOLD

And the way the taps were perfectly synced between video and audio!

It does have mad "Okay guys, I can be scary, alright."

I feel like a lot of things Brennan does is revenge for the corn cuties in Season 1.

@@AlastorNahIdWinRadioDemonI feel like everything he did in season 1 was revenge for the corn cuties in season 1.

I've said it before and I will say it again. The sheer delight on Brennans face when he found how terrifying this was to the people was almost as scary as this actually masterpiece. I can memorize this story to tell at a campfire in a more relatable way. I cannot mimic that look without actually going insane first

I was listening to this part at work(also thought they removed on on the app but nope it was in later episodes) and I was getting the creeps listening to it.

@@Skiddlescout also good for Brennan as there story teller if none of the part of the story he want to be scary , not scary it bad feel a bit. (Aka corn cuties)

As a DM myself, I can confirm that there is nothing more satisfying than coming up with something you intend to be scary/unnerving, and your players being absolutely *terrified* by it...in a good, safe, agreed-upon way, of course.

I mean have you seen EXU Calamity? Brennan can be more than scary, he was fkn terrifying

he deserves better tratment.

My toxic trait is that, Honestly when this started, my first instinct was to ship it. Barron probably wouldn’t actually be a good match.😂

To be fair, I haven't seen this but Baron seems like they have ulterior motives AKA please flesh me out, all I've got is a name, a homeland, and you.

​@@hiro2protagonistBaron was kinda right though. It wasn't their fault they were born of lies.

@@hiro2protagonistListen, since Riz is probably on the aroace spectrum, it may not be an OTP to ship, but a BROTP could work! Once Riz accepts himself, I think his "romance partner" could become just... a "partner". And everyone'll be better for it.

hes the voice of the people fr

The still face makes it twice as scary

Brendad Leigh Milligan

He needed the upgrade

By that point he was using his father's gun , wich is stated to be better and more modern-ish than the arquebus

*they?

@@iwillcry oh I heard murph say "little skeleton boy" when reffering to Baron but on the wiki it says they/them and he/him so they works as well!

@@keylime3167 i guess because baron’s figure was basically riz’s but a mannequin. I think it’s part of the joke as riz used the genderless term ”partner” while describing baron and didn’t specify gender

You have been naughty thrice Riz Gukgak!

Stark father I don’t feel so good

Same. When I saw Dropout release this scene animated, I was hoping it was this one

Agreed

It deserves a full animated series, maybe on dropout

I swear it deserves an animated run so bad

Neverafter? I just got to the mice and feel like I truly understand eldritch horror for the first time.

Yeah. I've been doing it for the past couple weeks.

Spoilers: Either Kalina or Cassandra can make dream-creatures seem real, but each with their own limitations. Kalina can only enhance the illusion by hijacking a single person's senses and Cassandra's ability to completely warp reality to make dreams real only seems to apply in-forest. If Baron had remained by Riz's side, perhaps Baron would have disappeared mid-fight when Riz was cured of the plague or when Kalina was defeated in combat. Perhaps Baron would have lived on through Cassandra's magic, but only within the boundaries of the forest. However, the reason Baron existed at all was due to Riz's worries over possibly being aro/ace and being left alone because everyone else would eventually find someone more important to them. Baron only has 3 things supporting their identity, 1) their home, 2)their romance partner being Riz, and 3)their name. They were created out of thin air, have no memories, no ties, nothing. That's all they've got as proof of their existence. Living in the forest instead of the Baronies or accepting Riz is aro/ace would destroy Baron's spirit. I doubt Baron could ever accept living in such a world.

I mean, at that point, he didn't know the sound came from the mirror. He was creeping towards the other room to see what was going on in there.

@@bluebird9870 oh no i know, i (as in my actual self) just hates mirrors, and if i hear a sound when nobody else is home im immediately like “did a demon break through my mirror?”

I would have accidentally derailed the plot by hiding behind the mirror to wait for someone to appear

yeah the framing the dm gave of the scene immediately made me think the mirror is evil

I think Brennan wanted Riz to get kidnapped so it didn’t really matter what he’d done it would have had the same outcome probably

I don't know what Baron is yet, but I'm guessing some kind of Fey. Pretty, cute, terrible. All together that's pretty dang fey.
