At first I was like 'Wow! This is something my group would do!' Then I heard the group called the Ladder Day Saints and burst out laughing! That's something else my group would have come up with! 🤣
As a Latter Day Saint myself I laughed too. My group would probably do this too.
@@Listrynne Honestly lol. I first heard it and was like "wait a minute" but being a Latter Day Saint myself, I know my party would have done that too.
Ditto to y’all 😆
Was in a WoW TTRPG and our party took cover behind a table against some trolls. Used the table as a shield and battering ram. And we got so many 20's the DM started giving the table extra "power" every time it happened... By the end of the fight it was sentient and had paladin levels, it was named "Elbat" fun times
DM: LITTLE DID I KNOW THE LADDER'S JOURNEY IS FAR FROM OVER.
ALSO DM: I MADE THE LADDER A 'RELIC OF GREAT POWER'.
seems like you knew.
Our fighter had a +1 trident that could change into any weapon he willed it to be. So when we had a city-wide party and one of the games was to mount one of your friends and "joust" the others with brooms, naturally, we made him will it into a +1 broom.
Best I got was from an adventure I joined where I knew we'd be fighting vampires. Pathfinder had a mundane item "pump can" which was meant to be used for fighting fires. My cleric filled it with holy water and used it to great effect on the hordes of undead.
I saw this appear on my subscription notice. Thought nothing of it. Earlier today while I was at work, I scrolled through my Google Notices when I spotted an article about DND which included using a ladder as a weapon. Immediately this video came up. Finally watched it, and already realized its the same story. Now I'm stoked!
The Ladder Day Saints thing, I feel like my old LDS friends would enjoy that word pun.
Also take hate or negativity else where. Cause if you don't like the pun, that's fine. But doesn't mean you have the excuse to ruin someone's day.
I am LDS. I have made that pun whenever there's a ladder precent and after hearing that here I popped off. Was not expecting to ever hear the pun anywhere else.
Really early on, our pickle obsessed monk bought some magic beans. We stuck them in a bag of holding for a long time. Eventually, the plot led us to a mountain far north with two adult and one ancient dragon on it. We stealthily ascend the mountain. At the peak we find an old wizard's that disobeys all laws of reality. After exploring it, and maybe starting the end of the world, we decide to leave, but are spotted by the dragons on our way out.
We flee back to the tower and hide until the dragons leave. We really didnt want to fight them and were brainstorming ideas for what we could do to get off the mountain alive. Then our monk remembers the beans. We plant one outside the tower and get a magic campfire. Thinking it was a dud, we plant another. Up from the ground spawns an absolutely massive ancient pyramid on the top of this giant mountain. We hid inside to escape from the dragons.
I once created an artifact for a Mage the Awakening game that would randomly turn an object the player was holding into an animate spider made of that object and composed of the substances that made up that object (anyone who gets the SCP reference gets a cookie).
They picked up a book and I asked them to roll, they failed so the book split into two segments and grew sharp legs and fangs made of paper, and it bit their hand. I told them to roll for Composure, they failed, they threw the book spider at the ceiling and had hallucinations about Grim's fairytales while the rest of the players dealt with their new hissing mascot.
Combining potions in dnd 2nd had a chance to make a potion who had both effects.
7 years later and a change to 5e, lets say my wizard still preciously keeps his "potion of invisible beauty" 😂😂
Also got "waterbreathing firebreath" and "shadow stone giant control" 😁 Still waiting for that "oil of timeless haste". Someday
Reminds me of that Ladder that can start a war if it's moved. YIRBEL LIVES! Also reminds me we've left the ladder outside the house since christmasssHECK! EDIT: missed opportunity to name the demon VERTIgor.
I was just thinking about that ladder at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem too! Glad I'm not the only one lol
And this is how one act alone derailed whatever initial story this dm had planned but man what an epic derailment.
I made a fighter whose weapon of choice was a ladder, no particular reason other than he was in a situation once and hit someone with the nearest possible large object a ladder. It was a done deal, he carried that ladder everywhere and made it foldable and his only weapon. Though he also uses it as a chair when he gets bored.
I love that you actually have a Stat block for a suped up ladder.
Gotta love when the random item becomes the god-item because of good RP and/or rolls. Maglite.
For that last one I was thinking Sunflora at first, but then it devolved into Flowie.
I love these tales of in-game glory so much better than RPG horror stories.
The Ladder Day Saints. Groan.....
Speaking of ladders, I’m sure that my party for a DnD fic I’m writing, including the dice rolls, are cursed. Cursed to have bad luck whenever ladders are involved. And manhole covers.
Our DM gave us what we then called "the lottery hat". It belonged to an NPC and we were supposed to give it back to him, but he didn't show up at the rendez-vous so we said "screw him we keep the artifact".
Every morning, we all pick something from it. Objects contained in it vary from rabdom potions to scrolls and powerful and/or useless objects.
The DM lets us make up items that he then adds to the list if he approves them, which makes the morning pickings exciting as we're looking forward to ither players picking up the items we made up.
Of course, the items disappear after a day, so there isn't too much chaos...
9ne of the items tho is the "chest of Pendragon". It is an ornate chest with draconic symbology. Inside rests a thousand gold pièces woth à dragon on their sides.
We didn't know what it all meant until we spilled it on the floor. When the gold is spilled, the dragon that originally owns the chest is summoned to take back what's theirs.
We are no match to a dragon. So whenever we pick the chest, we keep it carefully sealed, and wait for an opportunity to wreck havoc if need be. Usually we don't get to use it because we're not too much of chaos goblins, but, we got to use it once to create an EFFECTIVE distraction to run away.
The ladder contained a colony of ants with an intelligence score of 30. These creatures lived in a village called Ladderville, and they had great philosophical ANTi-war ANTi-evil philosophies that they followed rigidly by using their great intellect to ensure a better future for all.
Mudane adventure items are the best if creatively used. As a joke for a character i play due to me being creative with mudane alchemiclal items (ie glue or erc) to non-magic items with inexpensive low level magic at use( Ie a 10ft pole, bag of sand, caldrops or etc). This is D&D 3.5 for system use continual flame on a large bag of marbles, boom can toss a marble to see how deep hole is or how long a tunnel is, 10ft pole with hook and chain and glue for hold a marble with continue flame on it.... instict light source with a reach of 10ft or use to see in the darkness.
Mudane items are the best if a creative player know what to do with them. As simple items like using a bag of flower can help reveal a path if a foe walk through it to trying to make a invisible foe visible through non-magical means.
Someone forgot the table and chair
This book will be called: The Ladder, the Flower and the Sea Shell
Ooohh yes!!!! I read this story on your Reddit!!!
The DM in one of the campaigns I was in made a stick that would make the holder want to protect trees and the stick. The barbarian pasted the save, but my wood elf ranger and his wolf companion didn't :p
I did something similar in pathfinder with a ten foot pole
Since my character was cursed not to use non improvised weapons
really fun stories, but I'm mildly amused/distracted by the glitching drawer handle in the bottom left XD
visual bug? or a mimic with a tick? the world may never know.
Video begins at 1:20
lets gooo
it's the stepladder/stairway to heaven. if it impales you it can let you leave this mortal coil and go to heaven (if righteous.) Oh no. the Ladder day saints is a rediculious pun. they must be LDS.
Ah the classic player inspiration.
DM, The big bad destroys your village. Players: don't really care.
DM: The big bad has your miscellaneous item, Players: TO WAAAR!
"Sorcerer-lock" is so much worse than just "Sorlock."
As as 'Set and Stage' Storyteller.... I concur with this ad read.
Maps are indeed the backbone of tabletop gaming, and the more detailed the better!
You can do it without them, but... why should you? Make your Stages look good!
The goddess of balance and justice aided in theft?
How did you guys expand the story...?
“Bag of Communism” sounds like something the Hoardsperson uses in Acquisitions Incorporated. (Except more than 3 portals)
Can you share the original post
:)
It's almost as powerful as the immovable ladder at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. No really, that's a thing.
Bertstrips...o gods, my virgin mind!.....................................................neverexistednevermindI'mfine.
Anyone know where i can find a fnd group at? Havent played in a few months but looking for a long term group to play the game with
Please be my DM!
"the ladder day saints" No. This pun is bad and you should feel bad for making it.
Nah that was hilarious
See, I love the pun BECAUSE it's terrible. That's what makes it funny!
9:01 LOL, nice TF2 reference. 👌
