or your players
I have a somewhat bad memory of playing DND as like a 13 year old. We were a mess. There was a cliff, a waterfall, and rope. Someone tied rope around himself and wanted to go down. There was a lot of cross talk and the guy with the rope around said he was going down.
The DM was like “no one is holding the other end of the rope”
“What?”
One by one they went through what everyone else had said they were doing. Searching the cave rocks for secrets. Keeping watch at entrance. Fighting over who got the magic stick. Etc.
Player went over the cliff.
It was decided that the character would wash up downstream with 0 HP and would live, so long as we could get to him in a reasonable time. Lessons were learned, sort of.
The mental image of someone securing a rope around their waist, tying it to nothing, and descending down a cliff is hilarious to me.
Wile e coyote ass
I was playing D&D (for the first time) and my party were a group of exterminators killing giant spiders on city rooftops. The first thing I did when we got up there was tie myself off to a chimney. Later, we were fighting a really big spider that was right at the edge of the roof:
Me: “I hurl myself at the spider.”
DM: “You mean you try to hit the spider, or try to grapple the spider…?”
Me: “IDK, I just throw all my body weight at it.”
The spider ended up splatted dead on the ground (traumatizing some unfortunate passerby), I ended up dangling off the side of the building, and one of my party members had to make a saving throw to dodge the rope as it swung through his square, LOL!
The hero yoshihiko for anyone wondering what the show is.
Great show.
edit: Mistakes were made! Oops.
No its not. Unless Japan released a Hook copycat I don’t know about. You can easily use the imdb link above to check yourself. Why lie?
Takayuka Yamada is not Dante Basco.
Takayuka Yamada is not Dante Basco.
Obviously. Scar’s on the wrong side.
But have you ever seen them in the same movie together?
I can’t tell if you’re joking.
Liar
Rufi-no.
Did you forget to add /s?
Such rookie mistakes. On the internet, no one can understand your sarcasm unless you put /s at the end, silly. /s
Venom vs poison
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venom
Venom goes in a cut. Poison is swallowed. You can swallow some venom without harm.
Poison is generic. Venom is specific to normal method of delivery (e.g. snakes and bees).
Swallowing venom may or may not hurt you. Probably not a great idea, but there’s a better chance you’ll be okay.
Getting a known poison stabbed/injected intravenously seems likely to be pretty effective, but it depends on the mode of action. Blood goes everywhere in the body, so it will likely find its target eventually.
My understanding was that toxin is the generic term, poison is usually ingested and venom is delivered into the blood? But it gets often confused in everyday language, and is only accurate when talking about animals. Not a toxicologist, so I might be wildly wrong
Now I’m curious what the most aggressive venom that can be ingested is
I remember some years ago that a bar in California was serving shots with black widow spiders in them. So, apparently you can eat the venom from a black widow without issue, and they’re pretty dangerous spiders.
Most of them would be denatured by stomach acidity but the risk of something like paradoxin finding a small route into your blood stream is too damn high.
When it comes to venom that is also used as a toxin in other species, though, and is a big killer of humans, the crown goes to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrodotoxin which is used as both a poison against predators for things like pufferfish and a venom for things like the blue ringed octopus.
Alternatively, his blade was not very deadly unless he got it in someone’s mouth.
“Here, lick my knife.”
“No.”
“Please?”
“Still no. Who puts a knife in their mouth? If you’re trying to poison me, maybe you should put poison on the rim of a stein and offer me some ale.”
“I’m the worst assassin ever…”
That’s for poisonous vs venomous, but poison is a generic term, the substance won’t care how it got into your bloodstream.
Yes, but he said it was coated in poison, not venom. Licking it was a proper way to administer the dose.
Which makes a very odd choice for a knife.
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/poison
“a substance that through its chemical action usually kills, injures, or impairs an organism”
Poison doesn’t have to be swallowed
Not if it’s venomous poison from Alice Cooper.
Been a few years but I think it’s from this show if anyone’s curious.
Confirmed😂 +1
Wow, what a nostalgia gut punch, I watched this when I was in the last years of school I think. It’s extremely funny for fans of JRPGs.
Feels familiar but I can’t place the title… 🤔
The hero yoshihiko and the demon king’s castle.

Lmao yeah I would’ve never pulled that, cheers!
