I did see like, one clip of him.

Not gonna lie though, it's kinda legit. I mean even if he went through the paperwork and legally changed it (I know he didn't but still) its not like human names are like domain names on the web. He still is listed as an independent and I kinda gotta respect the dedication.

Still not as bullshit as al gore and florida

    ugh, I've had some success by arguing you should at least deface a ballot. Why assume they'll know you're mad and not lazy. If 10% of people wrote in "fuck all y'all" you might actually get people trying to win over their vote.

    "You showed up for the protests didn't you? You didn't just assume they got the message did you?"

    But man it's like talking to a wall

    I saw it and it looked funny... I'm just really not in the mood for something that hits that close to home and I cannot imagine an ending that would make it worth watching.

    Even if it had a happy ending... it would feel hollow knowing that that ending wouldn't happen in real life.

    If they went on in some post apocalyptic continuance and learned nothing... I would be deeply depressed.

    If they somehow managed to kick the can down the road... same thing.

    it would just make me depressed.

    I'm trying to build this as a quick oneshot to try out DC20. Mostly just looking to test it out but their default campaign is soooo cheesy.

    For those unfamiliar, The King Dressed in Yellow is a play, and anyone who reads the script for this play goes mad. So the idea is that people who went mad reading the script are trying to perform the play to summon the King Dressed in Yellow. (which would be bad)

    I have a rough outline of

    • quick skirmish at the start in the guardhouse (the fantasy equivalent of the DMV)
    • leading the adventurers to where the cultists are having tryouts for roles in the play (small "dungeon"), where they find some prisoners being forced to become actors
    • leading to a final boss fight that I want to have on stage during the play to a whole audience of enthralled patrons about to be sacrificed to the King Dressed in Yellow

    Mostly I'm looking for ideas for theater cultists, and the boss fight. I don't want them to fight the King Dressed in Yellow, (it's a level 1 oneshot) but I was thinking about some ways to make the fight interesting and most importantly stop the play so he isn't summoned.

    I was kinda thinking they walk in from stage right and a big fake foyer is on stage while the King Dressed in Yellow is trying to enter the world. I figure there will be some baddies, three of them holding props, and after every round of combat after everybody had their turn. The King Dressed in Yellow knocks on the fake front door from another plane of existence and the right prop holder has to say the right line and then the script continues. Three correct line deliveries and the adventurers lose, The King Dressed in Yellow enters the world and causes havoc. So they have to kill/steal from/silence the correct actors and stall the play while the fight is going on.

    any ideas/questions would be welcome.
