Let's be honest here, this is a tpk. Even if someone in the party has the Holy Hand Grenade, they sure as the hells aren't remembering that they do.

what do you think is the statblock of the bunny?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

It took an area effect weapon (1 holy hand grenade of Antioch) to defeat it, so it probably has excellent AC and high hit points

When danger reared its ugly head, Brave Sir Robin turned his tail and fled

Yes Brave Sir Robin turned about and gallantly he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet, he beat a very brave retreat. Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin!

"In the frozen land of Nador, they were forced to eat Sir Robin's minstrels... and there was much rejoicing."

His head smashed in and his heart cut out.

And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged.

And his nostrils raped and his bottom burnt off.

And his penis-

Is brother Maynard still with the party? No? Shame.

Fun fact, the chants in that movie are the same words, just different chant tones.

“Merciful Lord Jesus, grant them rest”

When the monks are smacking themselves in the face, it’s a very mournful tone (fitting, since these words come from the Requiem, or funeral mass).

Monks: “Pie Jesu Domine, dona eis requiem” *smack* “Pie Jesu Domine” *smack* “Dona eis requiem” *smack* (repeat

And when the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch is being brought forth, it’s a call and response chant with a much more triumphant tone (which doesn’t fit the words, but is comical):

Call: “Pie Jesu Domine:”

Response: “Dona eis requiem!”

(Repeat)

Could someone please explain?? Thank you in advance!

[–] [email protected] 72 points 5 days ago (2 children)

In the cave of Caerbannog, death awaits you, with nasty big pointy teeth! See Monty Python and the Holy Grail for further details.

So I finally watched this movie and I can’t believe how much fun I had! Is there any similar modern British tv shows or films I could watch??

[–] Olhonestjim 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If you enjoyed the Holy Grail, then you should definitely watch Monty Python and the Life of Brian. If your whistle needs further wetting, Monty Python and the Meaning of Life, followed by Monty Python's Flying Circus ought to do the trick.

[–] darthsid 3 points 3 days ago

Thank you!!

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver 1 points 3 days ago

It's a classic for a reason! I don't think many modern movies capture the same style of humor, but I second Life of Brian.

They're not British, but if you haven't seen all the Mel Brooks classics, I consider them close enough too.

What an eccentric performance.

[–] [email protected] 40 points 5 days ago

Rolling for initiative means that a combat phase has begun. This will determine whether you, or the bunny, will attack first.

Doom music starts to play and you realize you're not the main character....

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

This makes me think of Harmon Quest.

...we were ambushed by a vorpal bunny a couple of years ago; managed to grapple the vicious beast and drop it down an open well...
