Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) | comment |
Adventure is Nigh is an Actual Play Web Video series by the folks formerly at The Escapist. Season 1 is subtitled "The Jade Homunculus," season 2 is titled "The Platinum Heart" (nee "In Search of a Platinum Heart"), and season 3 is titled "the Liar, the Witch, and the Wartorn." It also has a spinoff, entitled "Adventure is Nigh: Sidequest", which sometimes interacts with the main storyline.The web video features the following: Yahtzee Croshaw as an elf-dominant Heinz Hybrid (called a "half-elf" entirely to save time) Gentleman Thief (Rogue/Bard) named Mortimer Rafflesworth Everwind-Smythe. KC Nwosu as Sigmar Iceblood, a Jerk with a Heart of Gold Aasimar Archer/Artificer who left his betrothed (it was an Arranged Marriage) standing at the altar when he discovered that she was in love with his sister. Amy Campbell as Dabarella Yeetster, a hulking-yet-adorable Tabaxi Fighter who aspires to be a chef. Jesse Galena as Grinderbin, a Dikarya Artificer who wants to open a discount-magical-items shop. Jack Packard as DM and show host.Animated in the Zero Punctuation artstyle, the party's adventure begins with tracking down the Jade Homunculus after it was stolen by a flower man with the amusingly inappropriate name of "Davorty Cornhole." Each season follows a different campaign, from stopping a giant worm from tearing up the Earth to negotiating peace talks between warring kingdoms.The series can be found here.After the collapse of The Escapist on November 6th, 2023, the future of the series was briefly in limbo. On December 13th, 2023, Second Wind confirmed that they had successfully acquired the rights to the series from The Escapist. Season 3 will be re-uploaded and continued on the Second Wind Youtube channel, with the old seasons planned to be moved there as well. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Prince Chisarick Thathird II is a dead ringer for Prince Charles, both of whom are (or were, in Charles' case) prince-heirs poised to become king when their mother dies, but said mother is unusually and exceptionally long-lived. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: When the party first encounters Prince Chisarick Thathird the Second, he makes a number of race-oriented social faux-pas like remarking that seeing the uncommon Flora-folk is "unusual", or wanting to touch Dabarella's hair because hers is different from his, as a cheeky joke about certain uncomfortable real-world behaviors around minorities. To steal a magic amulet, Mortimer is snuck into a royal vault beneath a linen-covered service cart. Jack didn't have the graphics for a service cart at the time the episode was recorded, so Mortimer represents the cart and the cart is drawn over him in post. The amulet is guarded by shirtless, ripped-muscle men in denim shorts known as "Himbos". When all the Himbos get distracted by the Delicious Distraction placed atop the cart, all of them surround Mortimer — at which point the players start remarking that it strongly resembles the classic pornography trope of an oblivious character being flanked from behind by a number of male porn actors. | |

Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_1551c0d9 | comment |
Obnoxious Entitled Housewife: Charonnote or possibly Karen Ferryman is voiced and animated in a way that references this trope, but in reality she's quite nice. Ironically, when Chisarick Thathird the Second dies and gets sent to the netherworld, he's the one bothering her with demands to speak to the manager. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall: While the party is trying to find a hidden entrance to a secret location, Sigmar asks an NPC follower to do something to help. Jack Packard (in-character as him) says that he won't do that, because it would be Railroading and the party needs to figure things out by themselves. | |

Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_20d965e | comment |
Yahtzee likes characters who are Gentleman Thieves, Con Artists, and generally characters who "fly in the face of what you'd expect of traditional heroics". This fits his character Mortimer to a tee: a gentleman con artist and the least moral of the adventuring party. | |

Not the Intended Use: Queen Beyoncé's necklace is actually the power source for the robot army, which itself is only supposed to be bodies for the dead who don't want to move on to reincarnate into. Karen Ferryman is mildly annoyed when she finds out one of her acolytes built the facility with a way to control the robots into it, and she asks that its punch card reader be removed. | |

Chekhov's Gun: When the party enters Castle Sascha's courtyard, Grinderbin sees a big stone statue depicting the royal family. Jesse pesters Jack with questions about the statue until Jack relents and confirms that yes, the statue is heavy. Come the final encounter of Season 3, the statue is used to crush the Final Boss beneath its weight. Complete with a flashback of Jesse asking Jack if the statue is heavy. | |

After convincing Latavia Ticklepuss to turn Albert the shovel back into a person by showing him the future he and Betty would have had together (including grandchildren), Latavia laments that he didn't use his ability to see the future beyond his daughter running away to get married, as he was too afraid of losing more of his family after being banished. If he had, a lot might have been different. | |

Murder by Mistake: Mortimer acquires a needle laced with Perfect Poison. By hiding it in a forgery of Queen Beyoncé's amulet his intended target is made quite clear. However, the needle instead ends up poisoning Prince Chisarick Thathird, when he attempts to usurp control from Beyoncé using her amulet. Mortimer makes the most out of the situation by guilting his intended victim over the sudden death of his actual victim. | |

What Sigmar intended as an act of good by breaking off his wedding to Eggolier so she could be with his sister ended up "ruining her life" and she'd been wanting to deck him ever since. 1) He "outed" them to what is likely a highly conservative, religeous society, and 2) he abandoned an arranged marriage, which would have rent assunder the alliance their parents intended. | |

What Could Have Been | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_453871ec | comment |
What Could Have Been: In-Universe. The party's plan to get Albert turned back into a man is to show the Evil Sorceror who turned him into a shovel how happy Albert and the sorcerer's daughter could have been, and creating new memories for the Sorcerer to enjoy with them and their children (the sorcerer dealt with his grief by sending an infovorous monster out to steal happy memories), if only Albert wasn't turned into a shovel. It works. | |

Dabarella cooking a meal for an NPC the party has befriended. This culminates in her causing the party to have A Moment since King Fuzzyhug is an Emotion Eater who feeds on positive emotions. She has his essence imbued into her wok so he'll be warm (from cooking) and be able to partake in the meal somehow (everyone nearby enjoying themselves). | |

Early-Installment Weirdness: Episode 0, which was initially meant to be more of a proof of concept than an actual pilot, has some minor oddities where compared to later episodes. Notably, many of the named NPCs are depicted with realistically-rendered faces, and Dabarella is depctied as much more vulgar and aggressive than her later characterization (likely because Amy had yet to nail down her personality). | |

Body Horror: Poor Sigmar: He gets his right arm messily ripped off in a Teleporter Accident at the end of Season 2. In season 3, he gets a magic tattoo that allows him to summon a longbow made out of the bones and tendons of his forearm. Not only is it excruciating, it makes one guard puke and terrifies another into running away. | |

Mistaken for Gay: After Grinderbin takes Mortimer into a room for a talk, Sigmar sees them walking out cheerily acting casual, and leans into Dabarella and whispers "I think they're fucking." Mortimer later uses this as part of his cover story as to why he and Grinderbin swapped outfits as part of one of his schemes, claiming that "This is what happens when you get dressed in the dark." | |

Fantastic Racism | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: At least the guards of Borthelmoore Keep are prejudiced against Flower and Faunafolk, as well as Celestials. Basically, anyone non-human. Elderly Dwarves refer to non-dwarves as "Upsiders" and immediately distrust them. Jack illustrates it by invoking the Racist Grandma trope. "There's your really racist grandma, your kinda not-racist but still kinda-racist mom, and then there's you." Mortimer on occasion will say something horribly racist, usually resulting in offense from the people around him, especially Grinderbin. While the Elves have been integrated with the human kingdom for a long time, and the Aasimar are allies, the Flora and Fauna folk are noted to have been enemy countries for a long time. Queen Beyoncé uses this to justify several unspecified atrocities against them. | |

Suicidal Pacifism: The party is generally against hurting important NPCs whenever possible. They try to avoid killing Latavia Ticklepuss despite him being an Obviously Evil Eldritch Abomination, and keep Kalandra Ticklepuss alive for way longer than they need to, despite the fact she's made her intent to kill everyone in the room quite clear and refuses to cooperate in any capacity even if it means her certain death. The only exception is Mortimer, who very nearly does kill Kalandra, and has previously stated that murdering the entire adventuring party during their sleep to cover his own ass is an actual consideration he once had. | |

Off the Rails: During one of the sessions, the party takes a moment to visit general store-owner Bread and talk about the weird skeleton friend he has. They manage to uncover the identity of Bonesy (he's the previous king long thought to have disappeared) when that's not the party's immediate nor long-term goal. Once the group concludes they need more evidence, Jack Packard admits that he wasn't expecting they'd be going this direction during the current campaign. Jack Packard was expecting the party to fight Lativa Ticklepuss, who is an Eldritch Abomination Blob Monster responsible for forcing Albert into the form of a shovel. Instead, the party convinces Lativa to return Albert back to his normal form, a detour Jack admits was unexpected as he describes Lativa opening a puzzle he expected the party would need to do themselves. | |

Bavarian Fire Drill: One of Mortimer's favorite tactics for trying to evade direct conflict (with varying degrees of success).

They almost buy it until Mortimer pushes his luck too far. | |

Author Appeal | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_6627695f | comment |
Author Appeal: When asked about their inspirations, Yahtzee and KC cite a couple specific things: Yahtzee likes characters who are Gentleman Thieves, Con Artists, and generally characters who "fly in the face of what you'd expect of traditional heroics". This fits his character Mortimer to a tee: a gentleman con artist and the least moral of the adventuring party. KC says that anime was a major source of inspiration for Sigmar, which reflects in Sigmar's incredibly showy battle techniques (like one moment where he rolls with his blades like a wheel of death, or his bow being able to split into dual daggers). KC specifically cites Bleach's Kaname T�sen as his main visual inspiration, which reflects in Sigmar's design (both being white-robed, dark-skinned, braided warriors). | |

Tourniquet Fastlevel is killed mid-sentence after trying to defy Lady January Farfell's orders, Fortude the Poison-Touch (the alchemist kobold) is killed during combat, Lady January is murdered by Sigmar after the party summons a horde of undead to kill her guards, and the same undead horde also gets sicced on Jeremy Goodsex. Only Doory the Magical Talking Door and Dave Thomas (the artificer kobold) return for the series proper, and even then Dave Thomas is immediately Put on a Bus when the party sends him away at the beginning of Episode 1. | |

Cute, but Cacophonic: Dabarella is a mild example, having a voice that's slightly louder and more childish than normal, but Jack takes full advantage of this trope for a couple of the NPCs. Toasty Cinnamonbuns, the gingerbread familiar, has a voice like an Ed Wynn character. Anus the siren sounds a bit like one of the Pepperpots from Monty Python's Flying Circus. Both Charon Ferrymannote or possibly Karen, or Sharon and the gang's recurring ally Bread have aggressive Minnesota Nice accents. | |

Costume Evolution: From Season 1 to Season 2, each of the party members gets an upgrade in their outfit. Dabarella is in armor now, Mortimer gains a cape, Grinderbin replaces his shirt with a scalier one and Sigmar gets too many belts. | |

Never Mess with Granny | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_8183248 | comment |
Never Mess with Granny: Kalandra Ticklepuss is an extremely powerful magic user. She manages to hold her own against a platoon of guards, and treats being set on fire like a painful annoyance. She's also quite old, and Jack Packard gives her a very "crotchety old woman"-type voice. | |

An Alien Named "Bob": When asked by Grinderbin if he knew any "dickheads" from his former home in the Ethereal Plane, King Fuzzyhug names the Council of Five as some of them, of which he lists down all their names as follows: Krrrrrggh, Gaaaahk, Vuvuvuvffft, Oernergoergoerg, and Cory (Should be noted that those first four names are just guttural sounds that Jack probably made on the fly). | |

Jack Packard was expecting the party to fight Lativa Ticklepuss, who is an Eldritch Abomination Blob Monster responsible for forcing Albert into the form of a shovel. Instead, the party convinces Lativa to return Albert back to his normal form, a detour Jack admits was unexpected as he describes Lativa opening a puzzle he expected the party would need to do themselves. | |

It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time: Played With and Lampshaded in one sequence: Dabarella casts Augury to predict that the group's plan (distract Lativa Ticklepuss by convincing him to prepare for Albert and Betty's wedding at their shelter, which they actually don't plan on having yet) will be immediately useful, but once Lativa finds out, he will be very, very angry. Dabarella sums it up as "good for now, probs bad for later". Mortimer responds that taking immediately-useful decisions with significant negative long-term consequences is "the story of my life". | |

Didn't Think This Through | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_8d0785d5 | comment |
Didn't Think This Through: Early in Season 3, the party tries distracting the Royal Chancellor, Benndory Tickletoes, with food. Chancellor Tickletoes is a rather grouchy Halfling. They attempt to negotiate as his snacks are being prepared, but he bluntly refuses to talk until he's eaten, complaining at length that it's taking forever. You can't offer a hobbit food and expect him to think of anything else until after he's eaten! After convincing Latavia Ticklepuss to turn Albert the shovel back into a person by showing him the future he and Betty would have had together (including grandchildren), Latavia laments that he didn't use his ability to see the future beyond his daughter running away to get married, as he was too afraid of losing more of his family after being banished. If he had, a lot might have been different. Sebastian Piss gives tattoos that allow the summoning of weapons made out of the bearer's flesh, bones, and tendons, but "the price is pain." 1d12 damage per +weapon level to get the tattoo, and again for the Transformation Sequence. The Religion Check Siggy whiffs implies that Piss is some kind of Evil entity; meaning that Sigmar made a Warlock Pact with him. This being a faustian bargain is confirmed in the Season 3 finalé. What Sigmar intended as an act of good by breaking off his wedding to Eggolier so she could be with his sister ended up "ruining her life" and she'd been wanting to deck him ever since. 1) He "outed" them to what is likely a highly conservative, religeous society, and 2) he abandoned an arranged marriage, which would have rent assunder the alliance their parents intended. Mortimer's plan to attract the attention of Fudge Ruckersford by casually name-dropping the Jade Homunculus within earshot gets him and Sigmar in a lot of trouble, because knowledge of the Jade Homunculus is supposed to be highly classified in the human settlements, leading Fudge to believe that the group are a bunch of enemy spies. | |

For the later-introduced flora-people, it's subverted in that they do present as masculine or feminine. | |

He also tells Grinderbin that if he ever tells anybody about it, he'll never be safe again. | |

Chef of Iron: Dabarella is a War Chef. Many of her weapons in a battle are also various cooking utensils. She's also capable of making a very good meal, if called to do so. | |

Break Them by Talking: Mortimer does this to Queen Beyoncé, under the guise of telling her of her son's assassination. By the tone of his voice, it's heavily implied that Mortimer has experienced exactly what the Queen is now feeling. | |

Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_c0f87dda | comment |
Humans Are Warriors: The Human Kingdom is noted to have entirely subsumed the elven nation, and driven the dwarves into an isolationist Land of One City. There is also tension between the human, flora-, and fauna- folk nations. | |

Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_c2299d6e | comment |
Cutting the Knot: When Grinderbin encounters Bonesy in S3 E10, Bonesy has important information to tell him, but — being a skeleton that doesn't have lungs — he cannot succinctly communicate this. Initially Grinderbin plays charades with him to try and guess what Bonesy needs him to know... until Mortimer arrives on the scene, and bypasses the issue by giving Bonesy a pen and paper to write what he means. | |

Shout-Out | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: KC has admitted that Sigmar's original design was based on Kaname Tosen from Bleach. His redesign in Season 2 also took inspiration from the album cover to Bad by Michael Jackson. Amy's initial concept for Dabarella started as a female version of Meowscles from Fortnite. Mortimer's catchphrase for activating his stone of truth is "buggernuts." The minigun-wielding centaurs are modeled after Alan "Dutch" Schafer, John Rambo, and John McClane. | |

An Arm and a Leg: Sigmar gets his hand torn off in a Teleporter Accident while trying to tear off a manageable chunk of King Fuzzyhug's massive platinum heart. Sigmar then gets an arcane tattoo from a mysterious tattoo artist named Sebastian Piss. The tattoo could, as Piss explained it, allow Sigmar to summon a bow magically, but what actually happens is that it turns his other arm into a Meat Bow through a really painful transformation sequence. | |

That Came Out Wrong: A man named Sebastian Piss gives Sigmar a magical tattoo that allows him to summon weapons. When trying that goes wrong (a bow is created from Sigmar's own flesh and bones, which is extremely painful), a nearby guard vomits at the results. Sigmar is irritated, stating that he needs to see (Sebastian) Piss; the barfing guard gets ticked off, questioning why Sigmar wants to see piss. | |

Friendship Moment | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_d6b5f05f | comment |
Friendship Moment: There appear to be a couple between Mortimer and the others, during Season 3, but one is immediately subverted, and the other is one-sided at best. Before Dabarella attempts an extremely risky Fake Memories gambit on one of the season's main antagonists, Mortimer pulls her aside for a pep talk, where he praises her abilities to the sky—then gives an Aside Glance to the viewer and quips "I can bullshit with the best of them, can't I?" In the finale, after Mortimer is forced to reveal his Changeling abilities to impersonate Queen Beyoncé, he threatens Grinderbin with a horrible fate if the secret ever gets spilled. Grinderbin responds that if he were interested in spilling it, he wouldn't have let Mortimer know that he knew about it. | |

Unfortunate Names | |
Adventure Is Nigh (Web Video) / int_dd45df38 | comment |
Unfortunate Names: Jack LOVES giving ridiculous names to his NPCs, partially because it means the players will have to repeat the names during dialogue. Some notable examples include... An NPC the party meets when they wake up in the back of a paddy wagon is a goblin named "Jeremy GoodSex." He turns out to be an, er, adult entertainer later, and they guess it to have been his "pornstar name." The Side Quest spinoff reveals that there's an entire commune for clan GoodSex. The primary antagonist of season 1 is a Flowerfolk rogue by the name of "Davorty (pronounced "Dafferty") Cornhole." A River Siren who tries to seduce and eat Sigmar is named "Anus Quiver" (pronounced exactly how you think it is), presumably because her mother hated her. At the Flowerfolk hideout is a grunt named "Jeremy Nagginwife." One of the Dwarf Kings is named "Verri Longdick." Sigmar gets a cursed tattoo in Season 3 courtesy of a man named "Sebastian Piss". | |

Product Placement: The series is sponsored by dice company Dice Envy starting with the third season. Sometimes they cut to the dice cam — a camera positioned over a box with the Dice Envy logo on it — to show off the result of important rolls. In one bonus video where the players receive miniatures of their characters, Jack mentions that a 3D modeller named Sam Elliott created them. Each time anyone mentions his name from that point onwards, it's announced alongside some very prominent links to Elliott's social media to contact him by. | |
