That intro. I am sCREAMING. "I felt my cloaca moisten." cursed sentence

After a minute and a half I started to think the entire episode was gonna be Jim and Pruitts weird dragon roleplay and I was okay with that

I'm not sure, but I think "I feel my cloaca moisten" is the worst phrase I have heard in a good long while

I swear, these guys are on a never-ending quest to make the most awkward intro segment ever lol

This video made my cloaca moisten

you guys spit out at least three campaigns worth of info here.

Dark Helmet: Did you see anything? Captain: No, sir. I didn't see you playing with your dragons again!

"Cloaca" I'm subbed to the right channel.

"I don't even know what green and blue make" was hilarious

"Its the big bad you dont just run into him" no one told strahd this lol

I feel like there should be A LOT more young dragons about, kind of fighting openly amongst each other as a trial in which only a few live to be even adults much less ancients.

In 3rd grade I discovered "A practical guide to dragons". I later found out that it's dnd and that I've been obsessed with dnd my entire life and didn't even know it!

the cut to Jim at 1:10 is incredible

This intro made me feel things and I’m not sure how to process this.

That intro, ladies and gentlemen, is an example of why I BECAME A MEMBER OF THEIR PATREON.

I asked for an episode on dragons through the patreon. I am so excited to see it. Thank you so much for listening to your patrons. You guys are the best. You too Travis, you don't get enough love.

"5 editions later and they're still half the goddamn title!" lol

"why did we ever fight?" "This is so much more fun" Excuse me while I pick myself up off the ground, I seemed to have laughed right out of my chair 😂

INTRO: "Yes... This is a fertile land... we shall call it... this land" "I think we call it YOUR GRAVE" "Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

I am expecting the next episode to be, "The Best Way to Use Dungeons"

2 minutes into web DM and there is no chill lmao

Please, please PLEASE make a WebDM puppet channel where all you guys do is scenes with puppeted minis. It's what the people want.

These are exactly the kinds of ideas I'm looking for in my campaign! I'll be watching this video a few times.

I don’t think I’ll ever unhear 1:50 greatest intro thus far

Well I spit my coffee on my phone with the "Give him the Forest Whitaker eye" comment. I hope you are happy with yourselves...

That intro should just be the entire show from now on.

I have to say I really liked that in 3e/3.5e all dragons were sorcerers. It linked in well with the class, and it just made sense to me.

Web DM, that is an Amazing dragon mini collection!

This is it chief. The greatest intro of all time

If I never hear "I feel my cloaca moisten" ever again, it'll be too soon.

Almost 3 years later and this is still the greatest intro of all time.

That was probably the best Web DM intro yet

"Weee are, uh... talking about dragons" Yes... Bad Dragons™

I haven’t watch the video yet but the intro had me dying I loved it ❤️

ROFL!!!!!!!! (genuine belly laugh) You brought an already funny skit to another PLANE of EXISTENCE by going ALL IN!! You guys are the best.

I know I like how I made my dragons just a little more special Green dragons have literal silver tongues, gold dragons gave hearts of gold, black dragons dont have hearts, but they keep the blood flowing through eating within a certain period of time, and the steel dragons nerves are unmatched in toughness I like the idea that in the world it isnt "they have dragons blood", but instead its "they have A DRAGONS blood" Everything you can get is powerfull and expensive

Best WebDM intro ever XD

I did some calculations on dragon travel for my campaign and i came up SIGNIFICANTLY higher then you guys did. curious what people think of my research and calculations. from what i understand the 80-90 miles per day, it is about half of the max travel distance(with the big assumption they will return to their lair every evening) so 80ft every six seconds(a turn) = 9mph times 24 hours = 216 miles you do bring up the need for resting even if you decide they need to rest for 1 hour for each 3 hours of travel, with the 9 mph speed they get the about 72miles you give. however, looking at real-world air travel of animals that doesn't really make sense. if you calculate their combat movement speed they get 9 mph, but that is slower then the average airspeed of almost all birds, with the lowest being 5mph being the slowest a bird can fly without crashing(mating ritual for an american woodcock) I used a goose as a travel comparison point, a goose travels at 40 miles PER HOUR average, with up to 70 mph. in good wind geese have been known to travel upwards of 1500 miles in a day in ideal conditions. note other birds cruise on average at 20-30 mph, but geese travel at the high altitudes that dragons do. even a hummingbird can get up to 60 mph, and cover over 500 mph per day. I decided that because of the size of the dragon they cannot move as fast as a goose, but to maintain flight they can't be moving that much slower. (more mass means stalling limit is higher) So I eyeballed it and gave them the low end of average bird cruising speed, 20 mph, with the benefits of high altitude flying. To me going any slower would be them hovering rather than sustained flying. Also if you imagine a goose flying overhead, it makes sense a Dragon can fly at about half that speed. even if you decide they need to rest for 1 hour for each 3 hours of travel, with the 20 mph they get 360, but in my view of traveling for 24 hours they travel 480 miles per day, and that was the lowest speed that made sense to me. here are my assumptions 1st: with dragons super hi CON, it makes sense to me that they have incredible endurance even in unfavorable wind and conditions, I argue dragons can go days without sleeping, but as a result can sleep away weeks and even years if they feel so inclined. 2nd: they are on the low end of Bird cruising speed. 3rd to explain the difference in combat speed, is because to remain maneuverable the dragon can only get 80 ft of movement(9mph) but on long stretches get up to the travel speed of 20 mph to me combat movement speeds shouldn't be used to calculate travel movement speeds. but then this is D&D and not everyone wants the same realism I do, and the 9mph is the only speed the monster manual gives us. for those curious, I calculated this for my group because they needed to escape a Red dragon that murdered their mentors and wanted to know how far they needed to get before it would be guaranteed they were out of his territory. I did this for the fun of it and wanted to share what I found, and see what everyone thinks!

That intro and outro is pure gold lmao

That intro was so amazing I didn't pay attention to the video.

Now I got an idea for how dragons act. They could act like cats.

Sheer. Perfection. Honestly I want to see a small sub-series of them just playing with action figures!!

I can see a Dragon pushing itself through a keyhole for 10 minutes, saying "I'm coming for you" the whole time, classic!

The opening is how I imagine Jim and Pruitt play D&D during their in-person sessions.

Ironically just met a dragon for the first time in this weeks installment of the game. Had a chat with it, and lived. Well pleased.

I just finished reading "The Bounds of Reason," which is a Witcher story in _The Sword of Destiny_ featuring a dragon hunt. What I thought was cool about that is that it's almost a communal thing with the king bringing several parties of dragon slayers, as well as attendants and so one. This creates a great situation for intrigue as everyone is competing for the lion's share of the dragon's hoard, as well as having various ulterior motives for being there. I really like the idea of running that scenario where everyone has a secret win condition, maybe in addition to trying to get the dragon's hoard (in the story, one character was actually a conservationist trying to rescue the dragon, one was in the pocket of the gem-cutter's guild and was trying to keep the dragon's gems from flooding the market, etc.).

Me starting the video: this better be for the whole 40 minutes

I just watched two grown men play with dragons for two minutes... I ReGrEt NoThInG!!!

"Red McCombs" Hah! Gotta love that Austin flair. I see you.

That ending was great, I wouldn’t mind a small story before every episode. Haha

Next I want a full spin off of that Intro thanks

Y'all went full Black Mirror: Striking Vipers there for a second, and I'm here for it. Hah!

This reminds me of the art page in the first print of the 2e book that shows a clearly seasoned party having stung up a small as heck dragon and posing for a picture that no one is taking!

I love how much fun you two are obviously having

Dragons can be anywhere via spell abilities like polymorph(which Platnum Dragons love to do and mingle with humans) and Mist Form, Use WIzards Eye to inspect an area then use Teleport ect. A Red Dragon would Polymorph into a Fire Salamander to traverse into a volcano. A Black Dragon might Poly into a python to slither through the swamps thickets.

The intro was...HILARIOUS! Super job!

BEST INTRO EVER!!

this is the weirdest intro you've ever done

That intro was golden...and I don't mean the dragon breed.

Best intro yet.

The community reference in the intro was great!

That intro... well done. Way to commit to the bit.

I feel that you guys really focused on dragons as beasts or an antagonistic force. But what about good dragons? How do we use them as either friendly or neutral NPCs?

On dragons in Dungeons: it's not actually all that weird when you remember that many dragons (if not all) are also spellcasters and could almost certainly change their form to just WALK out of the dungeon. Or, perhaps when they are about to be beaten, they pose as a slave or prisoner of some kind and are "rescued" by the party

I am returning to this video as I am about to run some dragons, and I had WHOLLY forgotten about that FANTASTIC introduction. 10/10 awkward punchline content. :)

Our party re-incarnated a red adult dragon once.... we now have a very pissed off halfling after us now

This is the best start to a video ever.

I was just here for the dragon slash fic and stumbled on to some great dragon advice. Win/Win! Thanks guys!

You Need to do a Second Channel, with only you two playing with dragonfigures, I need this in my life

I am just in the process of making a whole new world (campaign). And I swear, underground Dragon MMA will be a real part of it. Faithful to this presentation.

I’ve been waiting all week!!!!!

Can we get a whole episode of that D&D, Dragons & Drama?

I’ve got two ancient dragons, one chromatic and the other metallic, that have essentially figured out how to work the same angle in the world. They both founded and operate adventuring guilds. The Ancient Silver Dragon started an adventuring guild to gather brave heroes and warriors to protect the realm from would be BBEGs and run monster control for the general benefit of the masses. Meanwhile the Ancient Red Dragon was watching this all go down and realized that these tomb raiding, dungeon busting adventurers were uncovering *a lot* of shiny hidden treasure. So he started his own adventuring guild for the sole purpose of gathering treasure hunters and taking the lion’s share of their loot. I’ve run several campaigns through this setting, and my players always love these two. It’s worked out great.

I straight up made a red dragon polymorph himself into a gold dragon and convinced everyone to let him be prince of the city state. I'm working with the theme of "is it better to be born good of heart or to overcome your evil at great effort" Bahamut, my dragon is trying his best to be a good person, a just prince & a righteous leader dispute his habits and desires.

I love these videos. Im DMing this coming summer for the first time in 40 years, I'm scared as hell, and these guys are really helping.

That was a fantastic intro! Also a great inspiration for a campaign. Two dragons are in love, protect the country side from their over the top and powerful displays of love lol. I love integrating dragons into the lore of my world. I had a northern town believe that white dragons brought winter with them as they migrated south with the herds. I also like the idea of dragons as quest givers as much as antagonists (even evil dragons). All the hunting stuff I kind of want to integrate into my games somehow. I liked all of it

That's one big-ass Faerie Dragon! Now I wanna use it for a high level campaign.

I know I understand dragon but the first 2.5 minutes is what the heck!!! Well done

Been waiting for an episode like this!

Don't forget about polymorph! Dragons can be walking the streets, or use it to get down to a massive cavern.

best opening skit yet

OMFG that opening

I just played on Hero Forge for several hours You are the heroes who have just completed my Side Quest (:

I don't think I've ever been prouder to be a subscriber of any KZfaq channel. Cloaca.

Your intros are A+ lately

I was going to watch the whole video, but after seing the intro I've got all I need.

"I can feel my cloaca moisten." Ladies and gentlemen, we have officially entered Jim's magical realm.

God that intro gets me EVERY time XD

That first 2 minutes got really surreal... Made me LoL, so good job I guess.

That intro...... holy crap! loved it

I had a town that was in the shade of a ring of giant mushrooms. In the clouds above the mushrooms was a silver dragon's castle of clouds. In the ground beneath the mushrooms was a colony of myconids. The myconids made use of the dragon's fertilizer, which is what grew the giant mushrooms, and the dragon made use of the town because she loved people. They all lived in harmony. Except for the pesky hag in the nearby swamp, of course.

Great video! Really good ideas for the next dragon in my campaign.

I wish this episode was just the dragon role play. I was enjoying it all.

This intro and outro 😂😂😂 👌🏻💯👌🏻

I was a player whose party walked into a cave looking for the source of some corruption, and just sort of stumbled into a young dragon. It looked at us, a party of adventurers, we looked at it, a dragon, and there was a moment of us all going "AH!" and then we fought without a word. Afterwards we thought "I guess we could have spoken to it?" but in the heat of the moment it was just pure instinctual combat

I love the idea of using dragons to shape the local culture. I wouldn't be able to effectively showcase it without an adventure module though.

I lost it at "Red Mcombs" and again at "Cloaca moisten".

The opening gave me STRONG Marbleympics vibes

The post credits is truly an abomination. God I love this channel.
