The Dungeons and Dragons II: Wraith of the Dragon God spoiler filled thread.

Half-orc. He looks just like the picture labeled "half-orc" from the opening credits.

Sigh ... clerics have such bad reflex saves.

Spell list continued: fire shield (?), detect magic, lightning bolt ...

Other spells include Locate Object spell, and I am not sure what Berick's wife used in the beginning but I think it was a Vision spell

Thus far better then then the first... so was that a white dragon that the cleric died to?

That's be my guess, though it was a little... grey.

Yeah, it's not Lords of the Rings, but it certainly isn't the eye-gouging horror the first movie was.

Edit: After all those other runes, the writing on the statue is in English? They got lazy.

Ooh! And a Shrine of the Kuo-toa reference!

Hmmm, the fitness equipment could a provider thing. Ie, cable/sat. (I have DirecTV)

I liked how when they got into the goblin shaman hut, they started looting the place first.

It does seem very D&D-ish, except the lack of raise-dead magic

Spoiler

(though obviously that's made tricky since it's the cleric that is dead)

 

[Evil Ujio]

True but the rogue had a Gem of True Seeing...

and the Mage a Ring of the Ram!

 

[Olgar Shiverstone]

Now the magic items get their turn ... gem of true seeing, wand of lightning, ring of the ram.

Definitely a D&D geekfest.

It does seem very D&D-ish.....

A movie with Dungeons and Dragons in the title better be.

 

[Pseudonym]

I'm enjoying it so far. The 1st ed references are enough to keep me going. Good stuff.

 

[DungeonmasterCal]

I just heard a reference to the Shrine of the Kuo-Toa while trying to find their way into the Vaults.

While this movie is no cinematic landmark, or even a cinematic speedbump and only really marginally better (IMHO) than the first one; the constant sprinkling of recognizable D&Dism is a nice touch. I'm gonna record the rest of it and watch it later, however. It's not holding my attention at the moment.

 

[Olgar Shiverstone]

LOL! And the familiar is toast! Typical mage, only pulls the familiar out in a last pinch ...

Nice teleport mishap, too.

Hi Familiar! Bye Familiar.
