The Oxventure crew raid a stately manor, vying for loot in a scrum with elite guards, deadly brigands and a pot of tainted stew. Behold this new Dungeons & Dragons episode, recorded live at EGX 2018, but only after you've seen episode one, available now on Outside Xbox: • Plunder Siege Pt1 | Ox...
New Oxventure D&D t-shirts available now! tspr.ng/c/oxventures
Following their recent ordeal with an order of shushy paladins, the Oxventure heroes Corazon, Dob, Egbert, Merilwen and Prudence travel to Redcastle for a spot of relaxation.
Only instead of a resort and spa, the Oxventurers find a fancy mansion gearing up for an annual criminal free-for-all, in which the duke of the manor invites violent thieves from across the land to try burglarising his home. So then they do that instead.
With thanks to EGX 2018 for hosting and recording this D&D session, to our mighty Dungeon Master Johnny Chiodini of Eurogamer, and to character artist Bendix Engmann, also of Eurogamer.

6:02 'It was a convoluted idea.' says the guy who set his shield on a bomb in order to jump over the wall.
@@jocosesonata Whereas Dob has always seemed to rely on plans so over the top and convoluted that even he has trouble following them sometimes. It's just Luke being a chaotic entity in the form of a half Orc Bard.

Missed opportunity to call him a loot goblin
Love how Dob and Merilwen are treated like the adorable goofballs when they have so far been far and away the most dangerous members
Merilwen had like 65% of the kills last time
You see, it's a ruse. Act all adorable and then BOOM! Thunderwave and stabby, stabby spike trap. (It was NOT the grease, BTW)
The cuties are usualy the badasses
mr. andy, you forget that prudence and Egbert exist
So everyone is dangerous except for Corazon? Well, at least he's good at kicking chickens...
You know your plan is over the top, outrageous, and utterly nonsensical when the DM decides he needs something stronger and cracks open his flask upon hearing it.
Firewater always help, on any adventure.
@@kallasantysanty6092 Nah Johnny needed something stonger he's got top shelf dwarf spirits in that flask
To be fair, I’ve started a dnd Session like that
@@jefferycrouse5654 how can dwarf spirits be top shelf? theyre too short to reach
@@Super123456789ki Okay racist... lmao
"When do you stop being a cat?" Right meow.
That's one. You've gotta pick up the pace if you're gonna beat Foster's record.
I feel Prudence is quite happy to sit back and not do much in fights because she enjoys watching her companions slowly succumb to the Dark Side 😂
Elizabeth Alice Whitley In my headcanon (based on the descriptions given when she uses her power e.g. 20:25) she could kill everyone with the snap of her fingers but she thinks that would be to easy.
I kinda take umbridge with that, actually. I think Prudence would be more active in her efforts to co-opt/recruit her companions to her way of thought, or at least silence Corazon more often, or at all...
@@eriksvensson1297 yeah
I think the reason she doesn’t is because if she waits until the enemies are mostly dead she can cast a spell that makes their dead body unidentifiable, therefore causing sorrow and sadness for the family of the deceased and pleading Cthulhu. Almost all of her eldritch blasts seem to leave piles of ash as graves.
@@calebmurray4438 or piles of mush
"I think they might have eaten too well, so I'm gonna command them to vomit" I imagine that no one's gonna attend Egbert's Christmas feast after this 🤢
"Arcane Hadouken" is a great band name.
Yes that is or it is a great album name
Is your name "Angela"?
I'll just steal that real quick
That is now canonically Cthulhu's voice
It's almost a GLaDOS kind of thing
Best part of the entire campaign: “TAKE THAT WIDOW!”
I will not take that widow, it is scratched.
"TAKE THAT, WIDOW!" Commas, the difference between gloating and theft! :P
+Fox the Apprentice Gold.
@@fox_the_apprentice I don't think it's considered theft. It would mean taking a woman. Most likely kidnapping.
Curses, I shoulda proofread my proofreading!
Eggberts “vomit” command should really be called “chunder wave” here on in
Mandhir Seera oh my god
Chunder-wave with a hyphen to get around the one word limited
Wait, the ring of creativity, you just created something wrong, imagine this: DM: Now you have the ring of creativity. Player: Cool, so now I'll learn Thunderwave DM: OK, I see nothing wrong with that. Player: and now I'm going to flavour it with the ring DM: To what ends? Player: I change the T to a C. DM: What? Player: And now I know Chunderwave The entire table: ????... AYO WTF?!
So Merilwen spent almost her entire adventure being a cute kitty? Methinks someone is trying to trick everyone into thinking the meat grinder wasn't on purpose. & that's without even mentioning the savage bear mauling.
& none of this "it was the grease" business. What would the grease have done without the spikes? Hmm? They'd have slipped on the floor for a bit unharmed.
Corazon: "I'm not a Tiefling racist. I love Tieflings! They're so charismatic!"
"I flavour it vanilla".... *Prudence whips around* "YOu fLaVOuR It WoT!!!!????" .... " I mean, hot sauce hot sauce...."
"Take that widow!" - Prudence

Eh, fictional villains have a bad habit of not staying dead. I really hope we see him again!
He's a gnome druid and a recurring villain. He probably secretly transferred his consciousness to a nearby rat or changed into a fly after faking his death or something like that.
@@dichu1826 Does the E stand for Edgar, by any chance?
Your leader was a goblin GET HIM! (Dm starts drinking)
My water went through my nose
30:00 Andy: I may have embellished a bit. I think the phrase you're looking for is "Some events and dialogue may have been fictionalised for effect."
So much for being impartial...
How does Jane make herself look like a tiefling? She takes off her Jane disguise!
This is her true form? And she's still the most gorgeous version of pure evil to ever walk the earth! ;)
But would we survive such beautiful pure evil?
@@NoFormalTraining yes, we will and we´ll be delighted every second
Survive? Bitch I'll be subservient, ain't no way I'm working AGAINST Final Form Tiefling Jane
SHE HAS THE POWER TO DESTROY US ALL!! It’s just that all the energy is being tied up in the whole “being matter” thing, then you have to divide by time. (Physics joke)
Yet another massive tip of the hat to Johnny. Being a DM is a massive pain in the butt, let alone trying to balance that with making an entertaining show with a set time limit with 5... "unique individuals" like the OxBoxtra team. You, sir, are epic. These D&D sessions likely would have fizzled out by the first episode if you weren't a master at your craft.
I have yet to see the rest of the campaign, whether any of them including Johnny, have actually learned any of the rules of the game by now, but what he lacks in technical knowledge, Johnny more than makes up for in following the "Rule of Cool", improv "Yes And"-ing their wild schemes, and keeping it entertaining for the players and the audience!
He's impressive af considering when they started he only had been a DM three times before
@@blternative he'd only DM'd *DND* three times
@@jessicalee333 to quote Johnny in this very episode, "why am I looking at the book, it's our show!"
Love how Johnny started drinking from his flask behind his dm screen during the goblin charisma check. XD
I think the horn was empty by that point.
I like how it was egbert who just obliterated the gnome, and thats another boss battle in one hit
I'm starting to figure out just why he needs atonement so much, and why he keeps failing to find it.
EGBERT WINS! *FATALITY*
And the atonement deficit is now in the negatives by thousands.......
@@jocosesonata Oh no, Mike was in their first game. He had to kill his former identity as a gnome druid to become the explosive Egbert, paladin of awesome
Johnny needs to use the DM trick I used to use many years ago - if the party kills the boss quickly - just keep on adding hit points until it feels like a real challenge.
Jane's "Take THAT, widow!" has gotta be one of the all time greatest lines, ever! Lol
sure, when prudence licks a book she gets rewarded with a secret passageway, but when *I* lick a book its all "please sir this a public library" and "you have the right to remain silent sir"! the DOUBLE STANDARDS 😠
Jocose Sonata I don’t know which one of you are more wrong and I love it😂
Cthulu has spoken! The deity of gaming events would like to now announce that EGX is closing 😂
I was going to say that I'll miss Andy bellowing, "THAT DAMN CHANNAIL!" Then I think back his expression when Mike shield-bombed his way into the manor and realise we may hear it again sooner rather than later.
I dearly home so, or at least get a new nemesis Corazon can curse to the wind Edit: GAAASP what if Evil Dob returned?
@@beholdnonsense5100 Prudence may finally get that date?
Rob Stuart I hope so. It would be hilarious. There would be a sort of electricity in the air, probably from the Eldritch lightning from Eldritch Blast with the Agonizing Blast Invocation.
Let's see who merilwen horrifically murders today.
Introducing: Merilwen's Chest Burster™
So now we got Alienwen?
Chain kill with a half molten iron arrow~ Painfull
I would have thought Dob, after all the talk and action of throwing.
she did counter it by going in and out of a door for ten minutes! and doing the figure-8 around the feet thing!!
Someone please draw chthlu looming over jane announcing that EGX is now closed.
I second this
I third this!
I fourth this
YEEEEESSSS!
i 5th this
EGX Announcement Lady is now the canonical voice of Cthulhu. And it's a much nicer voice than I would have thought.
Genuine roleplaying with just enough roll-playing to keep things moving along - I especially enjoy the bit when the DM takes to a flask for something stronger. Bravo guys.
I lick the book, and I'm pleased! -Prudence
The dislikes are from the goblin guy's widowed wife and fatherless children. There's Tyler, Emma and little tiny baby Phillip. Look at Tyler. Tyler has asthma, but he is battling it like a champ.
Next episode will be called Tylers Revenge :)
Goblin guy should've folded before he got in a fight he couldn't win
“Take that widow!” - Prudence
Where have all the commas gone? Long time ago...
I have to say, Cthulhu has a really nice voice!
Very feminin
I expected more boom from Cthulhu's voice
@@cherrydragon3120 must've been Cthylla
Cthulhu is an eldritch abomination beyond human conception. It doesn't really have a voice in the traditional sense. Whatever you heard was how your pitifully tiny human mind chose to interpret it as.
"Everyone asks where is Corazon, no one asks how is Corazon.".... I'll do one better: "why is Corazon ?"
Because Andy.
NO, WHO IS CORAZON. OR what is corazon *OR* how is corazon
There is corazon *cuts to him eating an oil painting*
Egbert just destroyed the Gnome, don't think he will ever get neutral atonement...
XD
But it was an EVIL gnome. :p
At the end of the video I instinctively looked at the camera for the selfie smiling, and paused for a few good seconds, before I realised and felt silly.
Same
What? No Vengabus once again? O.o Methinks Dob has quite forgotten about his sister.
I think it was because Cthulu was closing the venue so they didn't have time .
I agree
20:14 You can tell Jane's been rehearsing this for a while!
Seems very similar to The Bowlers bowling ball attack in Mystery Men...
Poor Johnny; so exasperated he has to take a sip from his flask.
The flagon with the dragon definitely has no stew containing Cthulhu...
Bloody hell, a "Court Jester" reference. I hope you cashed in your +1 Internets Win for something nice.
Definition of a Dob plan: "A plan so insane and convoluted, It just HAS to work!"
Me: I need to sleep now Oxbox: *uploads hour long video Me: Hmm. Maybe I'll watch the first five minutes, and continue tomorrow. *1 hour later Me: Finally, the video is almost done. Now I can sleep. Me: *Discovers Part 2 on oxtra channel Me: I blame the OX team for my lack of sleep T-T
I share your pain. It is 3 in the morning as I finish up this video. But damn, if it isn't worth it.
There is a fucking part 2...? *is not gonna sleep till 1:30AM*
I haven't slept for 18 hours , you aren't helping Oxtra
Go to bed, I'll watch a quick 5min video of something relaxing.... 2 hours later
Relatable
This is more awaited then Game of thrones.
Even more presh mems!
Heat metal makes me quiver
@@finnw6813 Ayyy
@@finnw6813 oh you sneaky bastard you I see what you did there
Favorite line of this campaign: Corazon's "I have it."
I see Johnny has been taking tips from Alastor 'Mad Eye' Moody... which every DM should.
Nicholas Cross so never let your players put a magic wand in their back pockets?
Move over, Merilwen and her meat grinder and welcome Dob and his crazy plans! Seriously, both his plans were so bizarre yet brilliant and worked so well. Bravo! (No idea how you came up with the book one though, hope you explain it.) And poor Channail got utterly destroyed by Mike. Fitting, really. Amazed everything worked out like that (and what a plot twist!). Also, Chthullu has a woman's voice? I'm pretty sure that never came up in the mythos. Glad he got to show off his devotee/ pseudo-daughter though, d'aww.
You know you've crossed a line when your DM solemnly pulls out a flask and starts drinking disparately.
The goblin isn't meerly dead. he's really most sincerely dead....
Ding, dong, the goblin's dead.
I'm melting, melting!!!....
Phyllis Smith 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
All thats left of him after that blast would be a nasty ashy like puddle of what once was flesh and bone if that was real life xD
"Theres no way he survived that!"
Come down to your local red castle to try a spicy hot Merilwen-brand meat kebab, today!
TAKE THAT WIDOW. There's the Prudence we know and love. Or was that more Jane than Prudence? That line is becoming terrifyingly blurred of late...
The plans here are so lit, you might have just as well called this "Dob and Egbert Go To Red Castle".
And Corazõn fumbles around.
*discussing bombs* “Is that a Paladin thing?” I’m pretty sure that’s just a Mike thing...
Egbert the Careless is currently in negative atonement, also known as “a-debt-ment”
I'm surprised Jane's not taking advantage of her Telepathy from the Great Old One patron; not much is creepier than someone talking into your head without moving their lips.
“Is it lit?” Jane: “it’s so lit 🔥 “ I’m dying 😂
i was waiting on the breath weapon being used at the end, so glad Egbert got the killing blow on M. Channail Also really glad they got to actually finish this adventure, but im really bummed out about the announcer at the end. they need to do some more "home" games like the first two, and quiet riot, or at least some more things in their own time. anyway i loved this.
Luke was very quiet before combat... was stew his plan for a while? I mean... What are you gonna do Luke? Me and my mates did a King Scarecrow conquest yesterday.
I hope the next episode is themed around fighter jets and called “top pun”
MrChapmanification fighter flamingos
They never say die, but they'd need to be flying on dragons!
What, you just left the rat? You guys changed so much since the first adventure
The Duke kinda had it coming, tbh
Hold on. Prudence has a +7 Charisma modifier? So that's a Charisma score of... 24? Damn, that pact with Cthulu has some amazing perks.
Yeah, Jane clearly has at least a basic conception of how to stat a character for using their main attack. :p Hehe.
That's also impossible. Ability scores can't go beyond 20 for PCs without manuals, which I don't believe the party have run across.. More entertaining this way though.
I think her charisma might be 17 and they're working stuff out badly, or it's 20 and they're adding proficiency bonuses
@@John_Smith. that's her spellcasting modifier. It's charisma + proficiency, so 5+2.
@@freddierhodes8201 That's possible, although it's been a couple years so I couldn't say if that's what happened here, but I was responding to the OP, not making a point about the video.
Oxbox member: makes a somewhat above average pun. Johnny: it's free inspiration
I just about died when the thief captain turned goblin made Johnny bring out the flask. x_X :,D
Anyone else feel like maybe Jane isn’t cosplaying as Prudence in the D&D campaign, but rather Prudence cosplays as Jane on Outside Xbox?
"Here layeth Corazon de Ballena: He flexed, to no avail"
May I point out that no one bothered to save the man turned into a rat, and killed the only man who could provide an antidote. I mean, Cthulhu must be pleased and all... but that can not go well for Egbert!
I'd love to see the gang do the curse of Strahd campaign, seeing them fight vampires and hags sounds awesome!
And Jane try to flirt with Strahd so she can rule Ravenloft.
@@slewone4905 oh yeah that would be hilarious
"Charisma baby, i got it!" So nice!
I was really expecting Dob's Master Stew Plan #2 to be "I get MEWilwyn to push over the pot of eldritch stew onto the surviving thieves while knee-sliding knee-tly to the side". I also expected all the "MEWilwyn shoves valuables off pedestals" to trigger a trap &/or puzzle prize but a Book Licking Time was had instead, to my delight. I am headcanoning that the entire party can now hear Cthulhu without going entirely despair-y because Cthulhu Is Proud Of How Diabolical Prudence has "inspired" them to be.
I don't think I've ever heard a quote that describes how you should play D&D better than "Why am I looking at the book? It's OUR show!"
New t-shirt slogan: “I lick the book”
An oxboxtra campaign without at least three Vengaboys references is considered a dull affair
How to get over a wall: Oxtra: //thinks of a really genius plan Oxbox: EXPLODE IT! DESTROY IT! KILL THEM ALL!
I bet someone was sent to shut the show down when EGX closed and they just stayed to watch the end instead. I'm sure we all would have!
Dob is the most rogue bard ever lol
That selfie at the end was great.
Why do I feel like Prudence is going to slowly convert Eggbert to Cthulhu’s side? He does condone awesome things that would otherwise require atonement...
" You snap your eyes over, and then, down." You gotta admire Johnny's consistency and showmanship, cause that delivery was perfect.
27:30 It appears the duke chose... poorly
You know that your DM has begun plotting your horrific death when they break out their flask.
yours or theirs?
“Take that widow!” Chthulu is so very pleased after this best friends weekend trip you’ve all been taking. Helping people is gross. Love, Chthulu
Last 15 minutes in a nutshell: "M. Channel's back!" "Welp, now he's dead forever." "Selfie!"
If you think about Egbert has found alot of atonement in this campaign, he killed thieves,a goblin,killed someone who masterminded previous campaigns, which ended with him preventing the total destruction of a rain forest,trapping all wildlife in said forest, liberating a city of tyranny over free speech, so ironically he has done more good than harm
He did also condem an old, innocent, friendly man to a life of servitude as a seal. And willing endanger the lives of all the cultists on that ship by sleeping in the ships magazine. And pointlessly make people vomit. And doom a valet to be killed for fictionally poor service.
Highlight of the session: Egbert deciding the thieves had eaten too much and making them vomit, plus Jane and Andy laughing hysterically at the suggestion
Sometimes I forget what being happy feels like, then I watch a video from the oxtra team
“They all burst, Dob’s a goodun”
That’s the joke...
I think Egbert will never find that atonement by now, and he will just be corrupted into some kind of whatever an unholy paladin is.
Like the Lich King in Warcraft III? Does this mean Prudence will also do an alignment swap?
Prudence would only to turn even more to the dark side
As team "mischievous alignment", Outside Xbox, continue to try and define themselves in the D&D world, I am quite convinced, all things cute and adorable, Outside Xtra, are befuddlingly evil. My thanks to both Outside Xbox and Outside Xtra for another intriguing tale of character alignment: dos and don'ts in D&D.
As a DM, Johnny cracking open the flask was the most relatable thing I've ever seen.
What a Souper idea Dob had. Everyone was really Stewing trying to figure out where he was going
I swear Ellen and Luke are so adorable together. When dob got vined ("dob has... 4... 4... 4... Just 4") Ellen quietly leaned over, and whispered "I'm stronger than you" teasingly
How awesome it would be if the "random" bandit transformation turned out to be a Tarrasque instead of a Goblin. Johnny would probably still change it to a low level monster since challenge is not the point of this Campaign but his expression would be priceless!
I love how Andy just loses it when Egbert commands the thieves to vomit
Cthulu is like a proud stage dad, it's so cute :3
Prudence's shout of "Take that widow!" was the highlight of the adventure for me, although Egbert's shield surfing was really badass
I love that line after describing how the eldrich blast obliterates the goblin, immediately she’s just ‘is he dead?’
i love their oxventure costumes!! it really adds to the fun for me
From then on, Dob's stew plan would go down in legend as "Dob's Gambit."
