LITTLE KNOWN FACT: Sauron is a film aficionado
I just found it online somewhere, almost certainly not from the source. Looking up the text sent me to

A bit, you might say. Since rats and cats don’t get along, I had it in mind that I was going to have a little fun being afraid and/or malicious towards any cats or cat-like creatures during the dinner party, especially since we were just doing a one-shot and I wasn’t going to get another chance. About halfway through the adventure, I realized that there probably wasn’t going to be an organic opportunity, so while we were out in the gardens, plotting our next move to steal the expensive painting, with few NPC party guests around, I decided I would… prod the DM a little to give me an opportunity.
For the most part I was a good player during the adventure! I had my mannerisms down, obsessively ‘preening’ my ‘whiskers’ (read: facial hair), twitchy-but-social and generally non-malicious, generally inclined towards subterfuge and flattery over violence. Everyone agreed, DM included, that I made a great ratman.
But I CRAVED an opportunity to be a little ratty towards a little catty!
Because I was a ratman!
No clue what that is, this is a story that happened at my table (it was me, I punted the cat over a noble’s hedge maze)
DM warnings, for me, are always a sign that I’m about to do something I haven’t thought through enough, or that I’ve thought through TOO MUCH TO STOP NOW
That is to say, an essential part of the experience
If someone committed suicide by guard in front of me I’d probably be pretty disturbed too tbf
A Beholder is a type of monster that’s basically just a giant eye.
To behold means to observe.
The joke here is that the monstrous female Beholder only wants to ‘behold’, but the adventurer doesn’t really dig the idea of her perving on him while he washes.
Funny enough, come to think of it, I don’t think any of my PCs have fit into this.
“Ho, Tom Bombadil, Tom Bombadillo!”
Not my kid, just a photo found online!
I mean, who DOESN’T have a pet that responds to both “[real name]” and some variant of “Shithead”?
