[QUOTE="Corinnguard, post: 9392498, member: 7033886"] With my role-playing group, it's a mix of action comedy and serious character development. The action comedy is happily unexpected. Basically your "I didn't see that coming." The best example of this in the current adventure I am participating was my group deciding to become the 'Kobold Liberation Front'. Whenever my party came across some kobolds who were being enslaved by one of our adversaries, my party freed them and sent them to Elturel. Currently my group's Goliath Bloodhunter has developed an interest in explosives. I am still trying to figure out what got him interested in wanting things to go boom. 😋 On the more serious side, my party has had moments where our GM has taken a bit of our characters' backstories and injected them into our current adventure as side plots. They haven't been completely resolved yet. For my Bugbear Ranger character, we had a session where he went back to the lands of his Bugbear tribe in the Reaching Woods after being away from it for years. He had something of a spiritual journey within the bowels of a tree considered sacred to his tribe, helped purify the tree of its' corruption and helped save the life of the sole-remaining member of his tribe, his grandfather. Now he is trying to find out where the rest of his tribe was taken while helping his teammates. Each of whom had their own moments of serious character development. No, we have had humorous moments that were in and out of character. ;) However, we have not been having any Monty Python moments yet. I think the humor I have seen on display in-character is more like the humor seen in the Critical Role series. Yes. I like to think my group and I have experienced moments like these since I joined it back in 2021. Bardic Inspiration moments coming from everyone in the group. ;) [/QUOTE]
