The bard saves the day! (said no one ever before now...)
Nerd By Northwest #311 – “Bardic Backblast”
(Click on the image to see the full-size version)
Yet again, we see that you just can't take Brentwick anywhere. If he's not getting stomped by an efreet, smacked across the room by a giant elemental, or being clobbered in by a battering ram, he's getting walloped by a bardic enchantment that wasn't even aimed at him. Normally that's not possible in the D&D game... but when you've got tapioca pudding for brains like Brentwick, all kinds of fail are possible!
As to Dann's bardic rhyme, I realize it's not going to take a place alongside the works of Paul Simon or Bob Dylan. Heck, it's mediocre on a level that makes Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy" seem like a masterpiece by comparison. But in my defense, I'll just paraphrase Bones McCoy...
"Dammit Jim! I'm a cartoonist, not a songwriter!!!" 😁
