WotC's Chris Perkins discusses Spelljammer's space clowns in a new video.
"Immovable rods, how do they work?"Juggalo class confirmed!
I demand that my game with a giant snail flying through space be given all the respect it deserves!Seriously, clowns are silly, Spelljammer is less serious than many other settings, and this fits well. RPGs are allowed to not be serious. A lot of people wind up laughing around the table at the 'serious' story anyway.
I'm with you. Seems like WotC is leaning more towards the comedic/absurd bent more than taking Spelljammer as a serious setting. Let's see how far can we push things?Just...why?
the great journey just got worse.Halo
I love this. It's completely wonderful and utterly stupid at the same time.Three Ring Shaped planets in Clownspace...
I dunno if there's any generation after Boomers (or maybe even Greatest) where it isn't a thing, so I'm unsurprised to hear this, though man, sorry Gen Z had to join the club.I've seen enough scary clown videos pop up in my kid's Youtube watching to think scary clowns, as a trope, has definitely become a Gen Z thing. It's a good job by WotC to lean into the current zeitgeist.
This is just a wonderful concept and has amazing insult potential.Clownspace
