DM of the Rings

Recommended Posts

This is a comic I've been reading since, well, he started posting it.

One of the blogs I read did a thought experiment. What would it be like if a group of modern D&D powergamers had never heard of Lord of the Rings, and did a campaign based on it?

The result was this comic: http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=612

The rest of his stuff is hysterical too, but the comic is a good start. He's got a next button at the top to take you straight to the next issue.

If you send along a high-level NPC of great majesty and power to accompany the party, you need to realize that the players will treat this character like a bazooka: The NPC will become a weapon used to solve a problem in the bloodiest and most expedient manner possible, and then discarded without ceremony.

This is my favorite.

Seriously, that's about the most hilarious thing I've read since Zrothrum posted he failed the 'sader quest.

I didn't fail anything. Ontius just got mixed up, so I gave him some time....he realized his error when I came back and he gave me what I deserved. Then big, bad Irumeru the Crusher of Hopes, Smiter of Dreams comes and kills Ontius and said since my character wasn't puttin out, I couldn't have sader.

That's the real story and I'm stickin to it.
