Oh shit I missed this part
>>DM randomly assigns us characters
Yeah no, that would already be setting off all kinds of warning bells.

Is it bad that I immediately recognized this even though I was born in 91 and never even watched the D&D cartoon?

>>44192388

There was a D&D cartoon in the late 80's, and this is a recap of the first episode. Kids at an amusement park end up in the world of D&D, fighting a dude who pimp-slapped Tiamat named..Venger? Helped by the DM, a tiny gnome-like man.

Fuck me, I remember that. One of the characters was a knight with a chicken on his shield. Coincidentally, he didn't like fighting. Don't remember much else, except the gnome wizard and a tiny dragon of some kind, I think.
