hi not to be insane again but isn’t it crazy that wolfman ann’s entire deal is either “be effectively immortal but you have to live the same life over and over with no way to change it once it resets” or “live an actual life with the knowledge you are going to die in about a year if not less”

i really wish we got to see more behind the scenes of dimension 20. i want to see every character sheet before vs. after the every season. i want the dm notes. i want to watch the session zero, maybe release it after the end of the season as extra content. i want to see the one-on-ones between the dm and players. @dimension20official do you hear me?

It's Goemon Monday, and he had a lovely time in Virginia!

Plus, he got a pretty good haul out of it!

Hi Jonny! 🦇 I've heard mention of a discord server and I was curious if it's a closed server or if there's a way to obtain the link. Thank you!

If it's when we're streaming, it refers to a private Discord me and Sash maintain with our stream mods, where they send through messages from chat (and sometimes give me advice if I'm stuck on a game).

The idea of being in any way responsible for any sort of public or semi-public discord server makes me break out in a cold sweat.

Baroque works of sorcerous artifice have their place, but as magical MacGuffins go you really can't go wrong with a good nondescript orb.

I'm trying to avoid getting spoiled so I haven't looked up what's happening in the Jp server's main story, but for my own sanity I need to ask; is the story at a point where we know whether Lilia will get better/survive his almost-empty magic reserves..? Was it a true death flag from the start or only a plot device for malleus' overblot....?

not yet! I do think they're going to get back to it eventually, but -- keeping it as low spoilers as possible -- there's been...let's just say a LOT going on in the meantime.

enjoy 7-6!!! :)

Now, I've seen some people angry about Tartaglia's role in the 4.X Archon Quest, and I think that the problem is that we misunderstood the role itself. I think it is completely normal because our last real interaction with him was in his Character Quest where he is the main character. So we expected him to be a character in this one too. But he wasn't a character.

He was the MacGuffin.

Tartaglia is there as a plot device. He needs to be the "item" that the Traveler follows to unravel all the secrets around the profecy. He needs to be condemened in trial in 4.0 for two reasons: 1) to show that Furina doesn't have control over anything, thus giving us the first clues of what she really is, and 2) to give a reason for the Traveler to go to Fortress Meropide, setting the stage for the next act.

In 4.1 he needs to "disappear", so to speak. It is a way to introduce you to the final boss and give you the idea of how massive and dangerous this creature is, but also allows Arlecchino to take the stage as someone comfronting Furina's authority. All the actions of the characters are revolving around Childe even if Childe isn't even there.

When it comes to 4.2, the only reason he is there is for you to meet his master, Skirk. Once this is done, his usefullness as a MacGuffin is over, and thus he gets yeeted.

Now, I would argue that it would have been better to just leave him there so the Traveler could bring him with them, but I suppose that someone with such a out-of-the-world morality as Skirk would just deal with him that way.

But that's it. He was not a character in this Archon Quest. He was MOTIVATION.

(On the other hand, I would also argue that there are very few characters that could have acted as the McGuffin as good as he did)

I feel like, given his previous job, it would be very funny if Tfone Bee had an assortment of VERY random things stashed away in sub level 50
