#ally with that nat 20

Kristen "the greatest cleric of our age" Chilis Applebees

I'd like to take this opportunity to point out the fact that I haven't seen ANYONE point out that Kristen's dex has GONE DOWN. She's gone from a -3 to a MINUS FOUR. ALLY LOWERED HER DEX EVEN MORE. NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT

[to-be-a-dreamer]

I have legitimately never laughed harder in my entire fucking life than the Fantasy High: Junior Year Beardsley Finale Nat 20, aka British Kristen farting a dispel magic at the season Big Bad so hard that the dead Goddess of Mystery granted her true life, not true life in the world of Fantasy High, true life in the actual, real world that we the viewers live in. I've never been high or drunk before but I know in my soul that whatever mental state I've ascended to right now is 1,000 times better than any substance could ever make me feel I had to pause that twenty-minute bit four times because I was laughing so hard I physically could not breathe Ally Beardsley they could never make me hate you

[melociraptor]

Ally: if I crit, can I get some sort of feeling from the shards that this is happening?

Brennan, who in five years has watched Ally roll nat 20s that created a god, resurrected a different god, showed the true face of the big bad, destroyed a paladin’s belief in his god giving him disadvantage on attacks in the final battle, and have their character self-resurrect: …we’re gonna resolve this first round.

wake up babe new razor just dropped

[bigboyhammerhead]

Everything Brennan does is cute but the moments when the PCs make him eat his dice and he does a sassy retort but it’s fully coated in “I love all these people and I’m glad they’re happy and I don’t actually mind”? That’s the good shit right there!!

[springbreak-ibelieveinyou]

i know we all praise dice deity ally beardsley for the impeccable timing of their nat 20s but after watching all intrepid heroes seasons i’m pretty sure zac rolls the most nat 20s

my man has been in crit city since starstruck at least, noticed it during neverafter bc of the death blow mechanic

[basrars]

there is no greater tableau than the first ally beardsley nat 20 of the night ‼️‼️

[saingirl101]

I absolutely love when the dice tell a story for any D20 show. For FHJY its:

That Riz, is the most impressive investigator out there and his hard work does deserve to pay off. finding the rogue teacher, all these amazing perceptions / clues, cracking the case wide open and on a more meta level finally getting to see Murph have those sweet nat 20 moments.

For Kristen, its her taking ownership and working hard to bring cassandra back and putting in the hard work. Showcasing that her instincts are exceptional and she's the godamn best cleric out there bar none. And of course the dice always reminding us that Ally is magic.

Fig its literally tying the element of bad luck on a meta level until she realizes that Ankarna is the god she was seeking and reflecting the goddess who was literally builded over by her followers and seeing the good intent that was once there. And After so much anguish with the dice those 30+ music rolls and nat 20 insight into ankarna's temple. Just absolutely beautiful.

Gorgug, its literally making the impossible possible by becoming a full-fledged barbificer and then immediately becoming the most critical member during the last stand. And the dice going don't fucking doubt yourself, and rewarding Zac literally every round with astounding crits.

Adaine, its a settling into a calmness and who she is supposed to be. Literally being able to gift out nat 20s, the calm efficiency of scattering the party into better spots and not breaking a sweat. Siobhan literally being the slickest player every round with her arsenal of spells and portents. Just 10/10, no notes.

Fabian its showcasing how majestic and beautiful it is to connect fighting to dance and continuing to prove how much he has grown as a person. Him settling stuff with gertie, FHFY would never have done that. AND FOR LOU THE DICE ARE TELLING HIM TO STOP PERFORMING SURGERY/MEDICAL CHECKS ON CHARACTERS WITH TWO NAT 1S.

"ally beardsley nat 20" this "ally beardsley nat 20" that. what about zac oyama 6 nat 20s in four rounds of combat? what about zac oyama critting 8 times in the last stand?? what then???

[deanmarywinchester]

going to see people play ttrpgs live in a theater is so funny to me. if you like long but surprising improvised narratives where your heroes are at real risk of not defeating evil, and you like pivotal moments that come down to tensely considering statistics, and you like when a player, through a combination of skill and luck, barely gets the roll needed to complete a pivotal check and the room is electric with wild cheering, I can also introduce you to: sports

[feelingtheaster99]

It is WILD to me that there were so many steps almost not taken that led to that final scene with Alphonse

First, Lou debated blowing up the trebuchet, but decided that would be awkward

Then, Pinocchio considers stopping to attack Alphonse himself but gets yelled at by the party because Alphonse is literally surrounded by enemies and he would be surrendering double moment to hurt someone doomed for death.

THEN Brennan decided to allow Pinocchio lighting a firework and giving it to Cricket as an object interaction

Pib gives Alphonse the help action and he fails his save. At FIRST, Pinocchio admits he was going to use his Master of Destiny reaction to MAKE him fail so he’s all good. But FINALLY upon hearing Pib say Alphonse is the only person from his town who’s still alive, Pinocchio feels bad and uses the ability help save Alphonse and he fucking rolls a Nat 20

And that Nat 20, guys gals and non-binary pals, is what allows a Cricket aiming a firecracker at a rocket to kill many tiny people and break a curse, turning a mule back into a prince

[live-from-new-york-its]

the adventuring party bit of all time

[blueskiesandstarrynights]

hey can yall help me compile some of the most thematically appropriate nat 20 rolls? I was gonna ask for just ally's bc it happens the most to them but I think there are a few others as well

[wizardofpalmsprings]

Thinking about Kristen trying to ribbon dance her way out of a situation to immovable pull up barring her way out of a situation
