I am a firm believer that a D&D group must have a minimum of 1/4 the number of players rounded up of healers, and clerics are undisputedly the best at that because they are one of the few classes that so snuggly fit all four party slots (white mage, heavy combatant, dark mage, light combatant). And I have decided that if ever I am in a party and am the only healer, no matter what I had originally planned for that character, they will charge the rest of the party for their services. Because if they really cared, at least one of them would have also chosen to play a healer.

I have two parties without a cleric. The first one has a paladin, bard, and artificer to make up for the lack of dedicated healing. My second group has a barbarian, with both the wizard and rogue cross classing as barbarian as well so we have three damage sponges kind of. Our druid refuses to heal in the second party unless someone is unconscious. So I can say parties can work without clerics... its just why would you ever want too XD

JoCat's character with the wobbly head is called "JoCrap". The character came from his series "A crap guide to Monster Hunter" where the JoCrap character went over the different weapon playstyles and dunked on them and largely used when he wants to aggressively tongue-in-cheek things. The wibbly wobbly head is an actual piece of equipment you can get in the MH game, a giant plushie headpiece based off of the in-game monster called a wiggler.

Sticks to Snakes was a real spell in the first two versions of D&D however has been removed from the more modern versions. Also the spell treats any single piece of non magical wood as a stick. Also I believe that all version of D&D that used the spell had it available to both clerics and druids, they just get it a different levels, so I don't know why there was a disclaimer about it not being available to druids.

Fun fact: Bards were historically a Type of Druid, they were the Oral Historians of various Celtic Peoples. There is a reason why the Bard in 1e AD&D required you to start as a Fighter, then Dual Class (Stop leveling one class to level another, only available to Humans and Half-Elves (Other Demi-humans could Multi-class)) into Thief (Rogue) between Levels 5 and 7, then Dual Class into Druid after 5-8 levels as a Thief, then you could be a bard.

It should be mentioned that the Wild Magic Barbarian in 5E is nothing like the Wild Magic Sorcerer. They don't have any spells. Instead, they always create a random magical effect when they enter a Rage and all the effects are beneficial in some way. So, there's no risk/reward interplay, just different flavors of rewards that may or may not fit the current situation, making their table of effects completely different from Sorcerer's, being manifestations of the Rage itself. Creating a larger table would have to be balanced differently, since it's rolled on near constantly, at least once per combat encounter in most cases. And the effect is usually ended whenever the Rage itself ends, so you can undo the effect if you don't like it for what you're currently doing, making any negative effects you might think of introducing nuisances instead of moment defining blunders, and as such likely not worth including on the table. ...Still a super neat subclass, though. Kinda like Barbarian that wanted to be a Bard but never decided what trades to be a jack of, randomly switching up their combat style all the time.

In DnD 1.1e, sticks to snakes was a level 4 cleric spell which turned 2d8 sticks (non-magic wooden items) into snakes for 6 turns or 16 minutes, with a 50% chance of them being poisonous.

It has been quoted before so I will quote it again. "How does a player break a D&D game in three words? 'Play a Druid'" In vanilla D&D 5e, regardless of which circle they choose. A 3rd level druid can cast the 2nd level spell "Pass without Trace". (Which lasts 1 hour and does not use concentration) Then they can change into a spider with shapeshift. (any spider choice from the list will work). This gives them a +7 to stealth from the spider form and an additional +10 from the spell. They can literally have a +17 to stealth checks at level 3. In addition, the spider form will give them Darkvision, Blindsight and Spiderclimb (the ability to freely walk on walls and ceilings). This is just one of the many broken things a druid can do.

As someone who has caught up to Critical Role in the first campaign when they were at episode 97 ( I caught up and watched live on episode 98; I had a LOT of free time), I will say I wouldn't worry too much about being caught up if you decide to watch it; especially for anyone who works, there just isn't enough time in the day. That said I can recommend checking it out; as mentioned, I've been a fan since the first campaign and I love it, and the community (99% of the time anyway) is awesome. Cheers!

Sticks to Snakes takes inspiration from the Bible when the pharaoh's sorcerers threw their staves down to turn them into snakes and Moses did the same and his staff ate theirs. But, yeah, Sticks to Snakes is an old school D&D spell.

Not too long ago, I came up with a most interesting idea for a Bard character. Instead of the usual musical skill; MY Bard's abilities lie in other creative outlets like writing, acting/storytelling, painting/drawing and cooking. I asked if cooking could be a form of Bardic skill once and those who responded said yes, same with the drawing/painting and writing. To elaborate, my bard possesses a magical quill/pen and paintbrush; anything they paint comes to life and anything they write down actually happens IRL. For example, if my bard wrote down that their enemy can't kill them with their pen...they would be magically compelled to not pull the trigger of their crossbow or firearm. If my bard were to paint something like a dress, it would fall right off the easel and become the real thing. Lastly, as a cook; my bard would be able to craft confections and dishes so savory that they might be able to end thousand-year wars. Does this all make sense to you guys?

Made a 5e version Sticks to Snakes 5e Level 4 Transmutation spell Available classes:Cleric and Druid Duration:6 turns Range:12 ft. Spell components:A bundle of sticks Effect:Summons 2d8 poisonous snakes. When cast as a higher level spell it summons 1d8 extra poisonous snakes per spell level above 4. Alternatively if faced with snakes you may use this spell to turn them into wood for the duration of this spell, rolling 2d8 to see how many you turn and with an identical upcast for later levels. No spell save.

The joke about how he was giving that tavern owner a reason to stay in business, I accidentally turned a blacksmith into a nobleman when I last played Bard (Technically Bard/Ranger, but it was a Bard with skills to survive in the wild... Backstory skills and it came in hand more than you think). Early in the campaign we did, after a fight and before an incident that got us paid ten-thousand gold a piece and kicked out of town out of fear by their mayor... I needed to fix my character's family dagger and needed information for the area. I paid the blacksmith for both and got what I needed... Then he questioned about the dagger being extremely "Beautifully crafted and unlike any he had seen before" then wanted to know more on it (A secret only the DM and me knew about the dagger is that it contains a literal God of death and will lure people to it by gazing upon it... It's super OP and I had no plans to use it often at all which is why the DM let me have it, on the condition he could make it a key item in the story... I agreed). I gave this blacksmith two gold coins (I started with fifteen due to starting gear and payment for successful rolls with a performance) and I forgot the party didn't know I was carry that much gold and didn't expect me to pay that much. I asked the blacksmith to "Forget he ever saw me and the dagger"; I bought his silence. He then repaired, sharpened, and cleaned ALL our gear for free and gave us bonus info. When we had to eventually come back to that town, because of the campaign's reasons... We were expecting to be jailed, because of why we were forced to leave. Instead, we were welcomed as honored guests and found out he blacksmith was now a nobleman who outranked who outranked the mayor. He took those two gold coins and invested... He was also waiting for they day to repay my "kindness". He had, without us knowing, made it known that my Bard was to be treated as if part of his family... To the entire town. Thanks to this we got our quest in that town done much more easily, got an army of Kobolds under my command (LONG story), and also we obtained rare gear. Except me. I refused the expensive armors and stuff and even the notoriety (I was going hard with my character's backstory through the campaign. Instead, I asked if he had a Ring Of Warmth. He did and handed it over, although he wanted to know why I just wanted a cheap ring. This is because that, to be fair for making an OP item I was allowed to have, I gave my character a LOT of flaws. One of them came up a few times and almost killed my Bard many times over. She was highly susceptible to cold... As in it will kill her if she passes out in it. The Ring Of Warmth is ONLY uncommon so it can be bought or found pretty decently. Despite it being uncommon... It has resistance to cold. But it's not just that. You can endure, with you and your gear absolutely unharmed, with temperature down to -50 degrees Fahrenheit. From this point on in that campaign, the DM had to repeatedly hit his head against the desk when I began to be used as a cold-shield for the party to hide behind so long as it wasn't below -50. Let me put that in perspective... My character became able to withstand ARCTIC COLD temperatures and this is a DM that went with objects as reference. When we ran into a Dragon that breathed ice, he specified it breathed a breath as cold as snow from the North (He meant North Pole). I was a living, breathing shield in that fight as I tanked ICE BREATH so our Dwarf could cleave its head off (They came up with a plan to use me as a distraction so they could dislodge a massive icicle above its body with the Dwarf riding it on the way down so he could use the momentum to cut its head off... We succeeded). As a reference, because the DM looked this up during the moment I said "I run straight at its face to take a shot at its eye (I had a unique... Odd... Weapon... I had arrows on hand but no bow, because I literally used my lyre-harp as a bow... The party loved that thing)". He was shocked, clarified that "You know it'll hit you POINT-BLANK with ice-breath right?" to which I replied "I know... I plan on it". I secretly sent him a text and he immediately checked it out... Arctic snow can get as cold as -40 in the Winter... Dumbfounded, he waited until I took the hit and the party seriously thought I was a Halfling ice-sculpture, until... "You all see the attack settle, and your party's Bard is staring down this massive Dragon... Untouched. She fires her arrow into its eye and blinds it on one side. You all realize that your Bard is basically untouchable by the cold of the beast as her Ring Of Warmth glows on her necklace" (Had it as a necklace, because we had a joke about it not fitting her tiny hands). Now it says resistant to cold, but he was impressed by this feat that he had me write down that I was now immune to ice, so long as I had the ring. It worked out too, because this character HAD to stay alive until the end for this double-whammy reveal the DM had planned.

Ah I miss that campaign. We had so much fun with our shenanigans when we managed to tame small Bronze Dragons to ride across the ocean. I'll miss my Bard and my Bronze Dragon named Tod. The Campaign ended with EVERYONE except my character dead... She's kinda trapped in an endless void within a time-trap. Basically she's in a dimension that has nothing in it left and time has ceased entirely. Although, technically it's not her, it's the God in the dagger who now is using her body and is forever forced to writhe in agony, because now he knows emotions and pain. We basically ended the campaign by forcibly teaching a God the price of power... And now he has to suffer that for eternity. The DM wanted a memorable campaign... He got a memorable campaign. Also, he purposely kept pestering my Sweetheart to get me to try D&D again, because he heard about the LAST time I ever played it wound up ending with the DM drawing a knife on me and going to jail... The reason he wanted me in it was because of a character I last played nicknamed "Doctor Quack" and long story short, Doctor Quack killed his entire party, on purpose, by invoking the wrath of a Red Dragon that burned them all alive much to the DM's horror and fury... We all hated that campaign and wanted it over with and I used a loophole the DM gave us as his way of being "nice", but he never thought one of us would use it to forcibly end the game FOREVER. Doctor Quack was a legend to my Sweetheart's friends, and after a lot of convincing, and a Renaissance Fair with them all... I gave in. I came up with Lilith Nightshade the Bard/Ranger. He had no idea what to expect with me playing but he admitted he hoped he would see a LITTLE bit of the out-of-the-norm from me... He got that in session two when I straight up tortured an assassin... Good times. I still remember the horror on everyone, except my Sweetheart, and the DM pulled me aside when we were done for the night to ask about it but then ended the conversation with "Bring more of that... WHATEVER that might be, bring more of that out of nowhere surprising stuff". I kept surprising them, going from torturing people who deserved it to falling over a cliff riding an outhouse to catch our Rogue and Cleric while the Dwarf was beating down a Goblin inside the thing... Lots of antics. In the end we went through a lot of emotions in that finale. Betrayal... Loss... Shock... Fury... And even happiness. My character was purposely designed to be distrustful and on edge... Because I wanted to literally bring a bit of myself in that character. I was distrustful of playing D&D after what happened in the past. Through the game that Bard opened up steadily, became attached to those around her and when it came time to utter those scripted words I had planned out for the end... I cried. Because I had to tell them something horrible when the Wizard betrayed us as the BBEG and asked me to join her since she could use someone with my "talents". I had to have my character face her friends as she took that deal and say "By your hands I have been raised... By my hands you will be laid low". The DM scripted that twist, but even he didn't expect it to hurt. I cried that whole fight as I killed the party with the Wizard until only the two of us remained. He described it as "While fighting you see she is crying; she is smiling, but she is crying", it felt right to us to think of it as this character didn't want to kill them, but something unsaid made her go through with it. Just when they thought it was the end of the campaign... The DM revealed the final twist... "The Wizard, while gazing upon the land she will soon conquer... Suddenly feels a cold chill in her chest, in her heart". The Wizard stumbled and turned to see the Bard had taken the cursed dagger and stabbed her through her back into her heart with it. "The Bard was never on anyone's side... The Bard was obedient to her God for the price of her revenge" and then he had us fight each other, with the Wizard having disadvantages on rolls due to losing blood rapidly and slowly dying unable to heal her wound, because the dagger makes wounds that can't heal... Again, OP dagger I never used. She eventually falls at the Bard's feet, begging as to why she betrayed her. The Bard winds up giving her body to her God, who isn't prepared at all, because he was a God in another Plane and never felt before... But in a mortal body, he could feel, and he felt it ALL. He felt the Bard's physical wounds, he felt her emotions, and he felt her relief. Her revenge she told the party was to avenge her family... They thought she meant the assassins who killed them... She meant the God that led them to that point and had them killed that they worshipped. In the end two spells, the God's and the Wizard's, clashed and destroyed everything... Leaving the God locked for eternity in a void with emotions and pain he couldn't comprehend. The only way in that campaign to torture a God like that was to submit your body to it with wounds, because then it would die and be forced to reincarnate... In THAT campaign I took it further, by torturing it with guilt, pain both physical and emotional; I didn't just beat a God... I traumatized it with eternal PTSD. As for the party, they'll be resurrected in a new life in a new dimension with their memories in tact, except the Wizard and the Bard; because they had their souls wandering the void. They'll learn about what happened by the Deities that witnessed it all and hold no remorse for the God sitting imprisoned. They'll learn what Lilith Nightshade did and what she asked as her true final wish. "To restart fresh... With my family I made on the way... Maybe somewhere else, far, far from here. Maybe even across stars in a place unknown. I will not likely look the same... I hope not... Last thing I want is for them to see the face that hurt them. I can't wait to see what adventure awaits us when we next meet." New campaign is set to begin soon and they will meet "Lilith Nightshade" in her new body, name, and life in the first town. But she won't have memories of her past life, only they will. No twist planned next time either, it's going to be a mystery campaign, so not too much fighting really. Solving puzzles and earning a lot of money mostly.

And, you have literally the word "Amen" in there... which is something you say after every prayer. Genius.
