"Whatever you're asking the answer is I'm amazing."
And awayyyyyyyyyyyy we go.
Yo, DMs, any of you guys running a campaign with PCs of unreasonably high level? When they kill a Lich are they more like "welp we killed another Lich" than "HFS! WE JUST KILLED A LICH"? (or replace Lich with Balor, Pit Fiend, Ancient White Dragon, Ancient Black Dragon etctera etctera)! Or so you just want to mess with your Tier 3 or Tier 4 PCs in ways they've definitely never been messed with before? Well here's the schwiftiest menace around.

DISCLAMOR: I am aware there are official D&D/Rick & Morty crossover products. I have not seen or read any of them but I did gather the vague impression that one was a starter set, which are generally for for beginner level characters (Level 1~3). If this productinvolves stats for Rick Sanchez (dunno) and have him at a CR where he can meaningfully interact with first through third level characters, IMO, WotC is already doing it wrong. HENCE:
Ladies and gentlemen, Rick Sanchez, CR 27.
This content brought to you by Dragons In Dungeons. This one's Patrons only but I felt like posting it up here public & free. If you want to see more cool crazy dnd 5e shizzle please consider pledging your support to Dragons In Dungeons. I have reward tiers for the $1, $2, $3, and $4 levels so there's no need to make a big commitment, folks. (If you feel like giving a little more, I've also got $6 and $7 tiers crammed in between my $5 tier and my $10 tier. Basically, almost every dollar amount under $10 bucks has its own reward tier is what I'm getting at, then I have tiers for people that really have disposable income they're lookin' to burn. : D
Questions from fans of the show about why I did this or that this or that way are more than welcome. Purely D&D based opinions are also very welcome. For instance, I think that this is a "reasonable" 27th Level encounter, I just think that Rick is much harder for the DM to play than an Ancient Red Dragon or a Tarrasque due to his low hp and incredibly open ended suite of abilities.

I'm not in love with the name "Murderdance", any R&M fans want to suggest alternate names preferably ones that reference the show I'm all ears. (Mechanically, it's almost identical to the Bladesong class feature which is what I modeled it on because it was the only class feature I could find in fifth edition that let you add your INT to your AC (I thought there'd be one that let you add it to your AC permanently, not as an activated ability, considering the barbarian PC at my table is like adding his Strength and Con bonuses to AC or something and thus has AC 22 stark friggin' naked). Anyway the main difference is Bladesingers can only Bladesing twice before they need a short rest; the Rickster can Murderdance (again, not in love with that name, it is not my "Pirates Of The Pancreas" so to speak, I'm not precious about it) 8 times before he needs a short rest.- from Pickle Rick
