I want that as my new ringtone
So long as you have One single class cleric! Or a triple crit paladin, that would work too hehe.
Four Panels of Pure Win
It brought tears of joy to my eyes 🙂
Barbarian in distress. Nice twist on the damsel 😉
Of course, she didn’t bother pointing out his primary purpose in basking in the mead halls is as the brunt of the jokes for the drunken gods…
“Divine Bitch Slap.” That needs to be made into a specific power/spell/etc. (I know next to nothing about D&D).
Also, a meme. Also, a catch-phrase.
