It’s going to be the 30th anniversary of Matilda in October 2018 and Quentin Blake imagining Matilda today as the Chief Executive of the British Library, an astrophysicist, and (not shown here) a world traveller is ❤
i’m sorry, sir, i don’t know what is wrong with your car’s engine but if you open and close the hood like this, it looks like the car is talking
This is legit one of the funniest things I’ve ever read on this site
The hour was drawing
well past midnight, and Percy rolled out the muscles in his back and
shoulders, stiff from hunching over his desk since the others had
retired to bed. He was beginning to feel the prickle and itch of
sleep behind his eyes now, and was just considering at last getting
up to go to bed himself when he heard the faintest sound outside his
workshop door.Immediately, he sat
up straight, blinking the sleep from his eyes, alert once more;
Whitestone should be safe now, and well protected. But Percy
had never really had the chance to learn to drop his guard, and
didn’t think he ever would.
so after sam “I stealthed so hard I’m playing with the McElroys right now” riegel’s obscene roll of 38, I decided to figure out what the absolute max stealth roll a person could roll in a non-homebrewed game of Dungeons and Dragons 5e is
let’s get the basics out of the way- i’m assuming this is a level 20 rogue, no multiclassing because i don’t want to give myself that much of a headache, who rolls a 20 on the die. They’ve maxed their Dex to 20 at this point, so this gives them a 25. any self-respecting rogue is not only proficient in stealth, but has expertise in it, so they can add double their proficiency bonus (+6 at this level) to the roll- bringing us to a total of 37.
we’ll assume this is a well-read thief; a Manual of Quickness of Action increases Dex scores by 2/modifiers by 1, so we’ll retroactively add 1 up there. 38. Ioun takes kindly to well-read adventurers; we’ll say she’s gifted them with an Ioun Stone of Mastery, which grants +1 to proficiency bonuses with the added bonus of having a rad fucking rock hovering around their head. Our thief adds 2, because of expertise. 40. Stone of good luck in their pocket adds +1 to ability checks. 41. they’ve also got the Stealthy feat, which lets them add their proficiency bonus to stealth checks again. Another 6 plus the Ioun Stone’s 1 brings us to 48.
Finally, this rogue wouldn’t have gotten far without a druid or ranger in the party, who might have been so kind as to cast Pass Without Trace. Add another 10. 58. Fifty-Eight.
I’m sure I’m missing stuff somewhere that would make this even higher, but if I asked for Stealth checks and someone at the table called off 58 I think I’d be legally allowed to shoot them on the spot.
If they’re a mark of Shadow elf from Wayfinders guide to eberron with the greater dragonmark feat they can add a d6 to that for a possible 64 and a level 20 bard gives a d12 inspiration for a 76
And if another party member had the Guidance cantrip hhe rogue can add another d4 for a max of 80
the player clips through the table and is never seen or heard from again
Yesterday at work these two 12yo boys came through my line and i’m instantly like. oh Boy. Because solo children at a grocery store are always forces of chaos, good or bad
But thankfully these ones were totally pleasant, and when i asked if they wanted a receipt one of them pulled out a random fuckin receipt from his bag and asked “Do YOU???” and y’all, i lost my shit… What a power move. When will i ever be this funny
