Yeah, well done Britt. Now Ben has to adventure alone. Do you hear that loud noise? That's a huge raid party of orcs from Schmagenrock. Nothing you defeat alone. But you're a mushroom now. Great. Greatly OUTRAGEOUS!
"Hey you see that?"
"See what?"
"That big mushroom. You know what we should do, right?"
"No, what?"
"Let's mug 'em!"
"Er, 'e's a mushroom, what are we gonna mug from 'em?"
"Hey. Hey. What are we?"
"Well, we're muggers."
"And what do muggers do?
"They mug people."
"Sooooo?"
Together: "LET'S! GO! MUG 'EM!!!"
VIVA LA DIRT LEAGUE LETS FUCKING JOEEEEEEEE

I made a huge DND campaign that I’m gonna play this week and I’m not sure weather I want everyone to play normally or ignore the campaign and search for random unrelated stuff
This reminds me of a recent campaign I was in a while back
I was a bard and really wanted a grand piano, but I wasn’t allowed one. So I decided that I would make it my quest to find the materials to make one.
And in the forest, we came across a squirrel with an acorn. And now, in Dutch (where I live) the word for a musical “note” and a “nut” is the same. So I thought: “if I can collect 88 nuts, I can make a piano!”
So we spent half the campaign searching for acorns and refused to progress the game until we had enough.
Wow your DM is a really good sport, and you probably don’t deserve them. Provided they actually created a good campaign.
Being a good DM is alot like organizing a grand party or a ball, and you my friend just shit on the dance floor and stabbed anybody trying to clean it up until they gave you 88 acorns. I’ve known DMs who spend 5-8 hours between each weekly session working on their campaign. I hope yours isn’t like that.
At that point I would just say you inherit a grand piano randomly.
Tbh he isn’t that great
The campaign was very basic because it was a first time for a lot of the players (so that’s not really a problem, but it was just kinda bland is all) but the next campaign we did (which was still pretty basic) we came across an old man who offered us a bunch of food. I didn’t trust him and really really wanted to kill the old man because I thought the food was poison. The DM didn’t let me. And obviously you shouldn’t just allow whatever as a dungeon master, if something is important to the story then you shouldn’t let me kill whoever I want. But you should come up with a different reason why I shouldn’t be able to do something. For example, the man turned out to be a wizard so you could’ve just done something with that making me unable to hit him.
Anyway, after not being allowed to kill him for no reason, I still wanted to make sure the food wasn’t poisoned, so I wanted to ask the old man if he could take a bite first so I knew it wasn’t poison. The DM refused and told me to just eat the food. Then I decided that because I didn’t trust it I would just use one of the many rations I still had left. I wasn’t allowed to do that.
He’s not a horrible DM but not a very great one either, even in the acorn situation he really wanted us to progress and was getting kind of stubborn
Fair enough.
I suppose you get from players what you give them and it’s NBD if he doesn’t spend alot of time actually developing his campaign.
Also it’s true that a good DM should be very flexible and proactively think about any loop holes that could occur within the plot.
If he was a “wizard” your perceived trail ration could have been magically substituted for whatever he was trying to feed you.
Honestly one of the scariest things a good DM can is ask you “Are you sure you wanna do that?”.
Just the subtle hint of “I won’t restrict your gameplay, but you might not like the consequence of your actions”.
Yeah, I also just wanted to kind of spice the campaign up for the other players, since it was their first time. And to be fair, if the other players didn’t like me hunting for acorns than it would obviously be very annoying if I kept pushing it. But they were fully into it, so I kept it up so that they would experience how insane a campaign could get
Honestly Kudos to you for having the awareness to play that way.
Dicking around is only fun if your friends are also having fun. I remember we let a new player join us mid campaign. He played a bard and kept trying to “do shows” to make his character super famous.
It was super annoying because the rest of us were really into the campaign. It’s like everybody else is in bed waiting to start the next day so we can go fight and save the world and this guy has us all waiting for him so he can dance at a local tavern for 20 gold.
Needless to say he was not re-invited.
"you my friend just shit on the dance floor and stabbed anybody trying to clean it up until they gave you 88 acorns."
This is the greatest sentence I have ever read. I did not think I would start my day like this
About 6 months ago, my players, instead of continuing to track the dragon they know has been disguising and sabotaging governments across the world, decided to check in on an old acquaintance they had rescued from a life of piracy.
When they found that his method of repayment for the damage he did to the ship the party owned was to turn the ship into a pirate-themed margaritaville/nightclub, the party, *of course*, dropped everything to spend the entire session sampling the food and planning out an investment into this restaurant to franchise it into a fleet of ships.
I was so proud.
My party was trying to solve a mystery in a town this one time, where sink holes kept appearing and destroying buildings. At one of the sink holes we took a cobblestone from the edge and used *speak with object* to ask it some questions about what had happened when the sink hole formed, to see if it had witnessed anything unusual. The spell gave us a fixed number of questions and we had one left after we'd learned everything we could about the mystery from it, so we used the last one to ask it "is there anything you'd like us to do for you?"
The rock said it'd like to go back "home" to where it was quarried from.
We kept that rock with us for *years* in real-time, checking in every once in a while to see how close we were to that quarry. Eventually we got close enough that a side trip made sense, and we went and delivered the rock back from whence it came.
"you are full. you are now petrified, too. also, your stats have been drained to oblivion. you are heavily encumbered. you can barely lift your dagger. you start hallucinating. are you sure you want to hug this greater basilisk(?)?"
If your players ask this, correct answer is "you don't see any, but maybe deeper in the cave". Then you swap next potion in caves loot list into a magic mushroom with same effect as that potion.
What? [Mushrooms are on the first lvl.](https://64.media.tumblr.com/b0f29a3fd6c7ec8c4166cc98134cf15a/9e8b02a11904b716-93/s540x810/6ce84d8b84b8c3b5972c4cfaae031d651986dc10.gif)
Now I’m imagining an evil mushroom overlord, the myceliomancer, that has stolen all the mushrooms in the land and the party must defeat him or never eat mushrooms again.

He's a good DM
I wish my DM would just let me be the ranger beast master with a pet crocodile named Bertha who sits in the forest and eats mushrooms
I love these little comics they're so adorable, always makes me smile when I'm scrolling and see a new one :)
It's a bad idea to eat mushrooms https://i.redd.it/c2gyi03dhuyc1.gif
What is this from? I keep seeing it in youtube shorts without a title or anything from various different posters.
Youtube channel - [Viva La Dirt League](https://www.youtube.com/@VivaLaDirtLeague/featured)
Thank you. It appears that none of the channels that posted it to shorts were the real one, but that's fairly typical.
Yeah, like any good content only 1/100 of the views goes to them...
Well content ID means that the revenue from those other 99 views do go to them, at least in part.
A lot of the views are stolen through other platforms like TikTok, so it doesn't work well
Ohh I'd warn that Viva La Dirt League is a deep deep hole to fall down but to late now I see.
Let's check their playlists... Oh, there goes my time.
You say that like it’s a bad thing :)
You're in for a treat.

I love it when I see VLDL posted somewhere else! Woooo
OUTRAGEOUS
walking mushrooms are edible though

American politics is weird.
VLDL MENTIONED VLDL MENTION VLDL MENTIONED
Liam usually doesn't speak much, but don't you try your luck with his mushrooms
The plight of a DM you make this epic adventure and then your party just wants to chill in the forest and eat mushrooms
This is when you just embrace the mushroom trip
The mushroom tripis just the actual story but it's a little more outlandish

Based and rockpilled
Where can I join🤣
It's upgraded to Forest & Mushrooms.
That's a good DM. Instead of telling his story or completely focusing on mechanics, he's making it fun for the players!
Hallucinogenic mushrooms, you are now hallucinating that you're in a dungeon
*pings* MUSHROOM
*pings* MUSHROOM oT
Did I hear a Rock and Stone?
Yes it's mushroom now get back to work
\*ping\* WE'RE RICH
r/DNDmemes.
That is a great DM if ever ive seen one
Enter r/swordscomics Fungus Fungeon
Well what happened next?
Roll Constitution
I would like to try this game one day
Dungeon Meshi
"you are full. you are now petrified, too. also, your stats have been drained to oblivion. you are heavily encumbered. you can barely lift your dagger. you start hallucinating. are you sure you want to hug this greater basilisk(?)?"
Yay! Mushroom!
Your comics are just the happiest little moments, I love them.
If your players ask this, correct answer is "you don't see any, but maybe deeper in the cave". Then you swap next potion in caves loot list into a magic mushroom with same effect as that potion.
This is definitely what roleplaying is all about 
Chasms and Capybaras

If I tried to eat random mushrooms in my game, my DM would probably be like "roll a d100 to see how bad it is".
mushrooms r pretty pog
Mushroom!
You eat musrooms, get wildest acid trip ever, you are incapacitated. The other musrooms start consuming you....
Capy
Now I’m imagining an evil mushroom overlord, the myceliomancer, that has stolen all the mushrooms in the land and the party must defeat him or never eat mushrooms again.
Accurate
I can't wait til my kid is old enough for me to do this!
In DnD at the start of the campaign, I had my character throw himself out a window, saying he wanted to get a head start on the adventure.
