  • wait wait, since when cant i be a fucking lawful evil paladin

  • What makes this funnier is the Irony of 1. Gary Gygax actually being dead now, and 2. the fact that this guy was the one who posted the 'Im in ur Manger' video. Just all out laughs, love it all, Pirates of Dark Water, everything. Also, im a big D&D guy. Just so everybody knows. Anybody wanna participate in an online campaign?...Maybe?

  • @JediSamson I'm up for it.

  • Oh shit is this not even 3.5?

    lawlawlawl who uses 2nd edition, pfft NERDS.

  • The Variant Class being the Paladin of Tyranny of course.

  • Pffft, what a loser, doesn't even know about the Paladin Variant class laid out in the Book of Vile Darkness, which clearly allows for a Lawful Evil Paladin, duh.

  • pizza is a vegetable now and i m angry

  • what his mean??!!

  • i love you!!! :D

  • lawful evil means he thinks he's being good but is in fact evil. example: Arthas from WoW. he killed an entire village trying to save his people. but it sent him into a spirral of evil

  • Golden Age green lanturn's weakness is wood, Silver age is the color yellow. That means they can both be beaten by a number 2 pencil.

  • hygax was a hack. he stole d and d from his friend and original co-publisher

  • I want your babies

  • kthxbai

  • When I originally watched this I understood little. Now I get every joke... What a long journey it's been.

  • Hooray for the power girl poster!!! :)

  • nerd rage!

  • PAthfinder Allows for Chaotic Evil Paladins... just saying :P

  • @DarthScythe1290 he's talking about lawful evil paladins

  • Actually, if you read unearthed arcana, it has variants for a paly of freedom (CG) paly of tyranny (LE) and the paly of whatever the hell was CE. they have different abilities based on alignment. not a fan of 3.5, but there it is. my weekly nerd-ness.

  • @MidniteCrusaider

    CE is Slaughter :P

  • Hahaha green lantern's weakness sucks.

  • @joemama114 At least its not as bad as the original green lanterns weakness of wood. "I have the most powerful weapon in the world, unless im fighting a guy with a baseball bat."

  • @matthewlane So carry a shit ton of baseballs, problem solved you distract with the baseballs, out of reflex the guy swings for them and you green lantern ring upercut during said destraction.... problem? I think NOT! *hurlabats 20 baseballs at anyone who reads this far*

  • i was actually wondering about the lawful evil paladin.....

  • Green Lantern can't digest peeps, hahaha! Classic.

  • Yes. Please and thank you.

  • "The only thing I lol'ed at was the Tanuki, kthxbai" :|D

  • did hank hill suddenly become nerdier?

  • HAHAHAHA

    "OHNO THE GREEN LANTERN CANTDIGEST PEEPSCUZTHERE YELLOW...WAHHH"HAHAHA ROTFLOL

  • UHHH...dude...gary gigax is, well...sniff...he ISb dead............WHYGODWHYGODWH­YGODWHYGD

  • i wanna see more of that gift card guy, in all of your videos hes not in a single one other than the MANGER one.

  • It's bad, because when I was watching the original video, I was thinking some of the same stuff. Lawful Evil Paladin wouldn't make any sense. Paladins are always Lawful Good...I don't think they can even be Lawful Neutral.

    Point is, I feel like a dork now.

  • @nameless888 House Rules FTW. Class Alignment = Retarded.

  • But in Unearthed Arcana, there *is* a lawful evil paladin, called the Paladin of Tyranny! And a Chaotic Evil Paladin of Slaughter. God!

  • Lawful Evil Paladins come up all the time. Switch radiant with necrotic, or as I like to call it, Dark Radiant.

  • ...nerd...

  • it's true if a palidin commits any crimes or felons it loses all its special abilitys

  • @Viperslasher17 Crimes and Felonies are a bit sketchy. Depending on the DM, Paladin can be interpreted as striving for the greater good, with the belief that an ordered society is the best way to do so. Thus, if a law is unjust, or circumstances are special, a Paladin might very well value the "Good" aspect over the "Lawful" aspect. Otherwise, they're more Lawful Neutral. Plus, there's always the Greyguard.

  • there are lawful evil paladin's... if you had read 'unearthed arcana' you would know... and don't make so stupid videos like that one :o

  • @UltimateThrax DUDE that supplement is for like... 4th edishn wich SUCKS. 4th edish is probablywhat made gary gigax sick and die.

  • @Leviticase ...edition...

  • oh ya a troll. where is the fire?

  • are you guys doing to make a justice league Easter hunt video? Cause that sounds funny.

  • Im crying this is to funny. The Refs...LAMO

  • Hahaha I love this. Nerdtastic.

  • funny. gygax died 4 months after this was posted

  • @BoyMercuryX this vid was up atleast a year before Gygax died. I remember seeing it way before he died. And I remember the day he died it was the day gameing took its biggest blow.

    Gygax is god and Gabe Newell is jesus.

  • i guess it was posted under another profile way earlier but this here says it was put up december 07. gygax died mrch 08

  • Paladin of Tyranny.

  • @YondaimeH0kage

    seconded.

  • How come this is just as funny as the original video??

  • "You have to be a rookie green lantern"

    ...

    I FUCKING KNEW IT!

    I knew rookies always couldn't touch yellow. But hal's so badass he can touch it! >:D

  • lol

  • "If Gary Gygax was dead he'd be rolling in his grave."

    Awkward...

  • Isnt it though. ;) Haha

  • @luckystarfan41

    why is he really dead?

  • @daxter34 YES he is....NOOOOOO,I CNT BELIEVE IT

  • he looks like AVGN

  • OMG he totally does!

  • OH GOD NERDGASM.

  • i googled D&D 7 times

  • Holy fuck, I wish I played D&D.

  • Well, I play a Lawful Evil Paladin in service of Asmodeus. It works, because instead of receiving his powers from a good god, he gets them from the evil Asmodeus.

    Our party also has a Lawful Evil Cleric, so I don't see why it can't work.

  • it doesnt work. Because you HAVE to be lawful good as a paladin. Its a set prerequisite for the class. Deity doesn't matter.

  • because he is talking about old school D&D. Sounds like you play 4th, sounds like he plays Ad&D 2nd.

  • Eh, it's a class specification. > > The whole basis of being a Paladin is goodness. How would you achieve powers that REQUIRE goodness from an evil god..? The class prerequisites have logic behind them (sometimes), dude.

    I think your character is broken, or your DM is going easy on you. > >;

  • Maybe it's a class specification, but then you've got to ask yourself what a Paladin essentially is. It's a fighter who got divine powers from his/her god. In other words, the gods take on Paladins. Now is there any reason for the evil gods not to take on Paladins?

    So maybe the rulebook does say being good is a class specification, but sometimes you just have to question these rules. I mean, it's not like evil gods don't have the power to create paladins, right? If so, inform me about that.

  • I don't think you've looked into 4e, have you? In fourth edition, 'goodness' isn't necessary for a paladin, nor is even being lawful. You may be a paladin of any deity, though you do have to match their alignment...

    None the less, paladins work different in 4e, but this was released during 3.5 P:

  • 4.0e is epic fail, and if you play it you dont play dungeons and dragons.

  • @Filmaker215 I agree....astral diamonds for the fail. xD

  • No it's considered a Blackguard, you become a Anti-Paladin then have the choice to become the prestiege class Blackguard

  • ironic, the guy who invented D&D IS dead.

  • hahahaha, I noticed all that too! NO REGRETS!

  • it's called a Paladin of Domination. Unearthed Arcan....

    oh crap, WHAT HAVE I BECOME!

  • a NERD!!!!!

    *Lightning*

    WA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!

  • What about the Anti-Paladin? what, way back in the really old releases of Dragon magazine?

  • With the crappy release of 4.0, there can be evil paladins, but not lawfull evil, as lawfull evil doesn't exist any more.

  • Why was there a Tanuki in a western based.....what ever the hell that was?o_o

  • ...cartoon?

  • Tis sad thar Gygax died,,, the only problem is he only played a role in D&D and took most of the credit. but indeed yes R.I.P. Gygax, may you always have a place on my Myspace

  • ;-; R.I.P. Gygax, otherwise good video

  • the funny thing is now gary gygax is dead.

  • Grizzly Adams did have a beard.

  • FUCK YEAH POWER GIRL

  • isn't he dead now?

  • yeah

  • yep he is, and he's probably "rolling around in his grave"

  • Is Gary Gygax rolling... NOW?

  • Yeah, I just noticed that from watching it for the second time. And it WAS a Tanuki! Missed that the first time too.

  • oh and he loled since in Japanese folklore toonoki's have large hangily downs which is really strange and funny at time's. if you notice the pink thing on the running racoon/bear thing yeah weird.

  • Actually, you can have a lawful evil paladin in 3.5. Paladin of Tyranny from Unearthed Arcana, and there is also Paladin of Freedom (CG) and Paladin of the Slaughter (CE).

    ... i can't believe I just wrote that...

  • Yeah, I felt pretty bad that I knew what a Blackguard was off the top of my head.

  • thank you good sir, i grant thee 1000 internets.

  • @deltazxp Clerics are way better. 

  • GARY GYGAX IS ROLLING lN HIS GRAVE

  • am i the only one who picked up on the Lawful evil paladin thing in im in ur manger killing ur savior?

    D&D FTW

  • R.I.P. Gary Gygax FTW

  • "If Gary Gygax was dead he'd be rolling in his grave."

    ...awkward.

  • Well, the only D&D rules I ever understood were whatever rule sets they used to create Baldur's Gate, and Neverwinter Nights. But Lol.

  • Em, current edition:

    YOU CAN TOO HAVE EVIL PALADINS, FTW!!

    And Gary Gygax, may he war and feast eternally (in Valhalla!) is dead. And he died after Project Orcus(The First development phase of 4th edition) had already been completed (as I recall).

    One more thing: TANUKI!? WHERE!?

  • em,

    he said you can have evil paladins but its pointless because you lose some class specific stuff because of the alignment. And he said if gary gygax were dead, thus gary gygax is still alive. Its 2009, gary gygax died 2008. This video was made 2007.

  • Comment removed

  • I have no idea what he said, but it's funny. I believe I just got tanuki and something about a lantern. A tanuki is the raccoon dog thing from that anti-fur videos right?

  • Actually... if you use the Variant rules found in the Unearthed Arcana book, there are stats and everything for lawful evil paladin. They do exist!

  • You are awesome.

  • wow, i understood none of those comments cause i never played DnD =D all i can say is that its safe to assume that one stupidly funny set of nerd references was challenged by another =)

  • That Gary Gigax line made me sad.

  • Same. I didn't even see it coming.

  • Yeah... :\

  • :'(

  • This is the first time the irony has made me sad.

  • @SpiseavSjeler me too

  • RIP Gary Gigax

  • Ha, is that power girl?

  • I have the exact same Adam Hughes Power Girl poster on my wall.

  • I don't know if it's been said, but the paladin of tyranny is LE

  • nice poster of power girl back there. i loved that cover

  • XD these vids are absolutly hilarious. *favs all of em*

  • "If Gary Gygax was dead, he'd be rolling around in his grave right now!"

    ...so, does that mean that Gary Gygax is rolling around in his grave right now?

  • Like a d12 when a barbarian levels up :p

    Also, if this came out in 2007, then there'd been Lawful Evil paladins for three years. Unearthed Arcana, Paladin of Tyranny variant, came out in 2004.

  • The sad part is that Gary Gygax is actually dead. =(

    Still a funny video.

  • Yeah. Still funny. And that "rolling in his grave" joke will NEVER get old. Gary Gygax has Permanent Win.

  • Why?

    Because he rolls _twenties_.

  • oh, I didn't get that! lol, thx for helping

  • HAHAHA

    awesome

  • wow that rolling in his grave joke is kind of....creepy

  • i know, eerie.

  • Paladin of Tyranny, Paladin of Tyranny, PALADIN OF TYRANNY! Come on man, pick up Unearthed Arcana. You can even be a chaotic evil Pally now.

    ah...I see I'm not the first.

  • Sadly Gary Gygax is in his grave and probably still ROFLing

  • What the heck is a tanooki? w/e it is he said at the end there... what is that?

  • a tanuki is a Japanese animal, its from the raccoon family. they have a lot of cultural significance in japan.

  • Understand that when 5trange0ne says "Japanese animal", he means it in the same way someone saying that the hydra is a "greek animal" or saying a leprechaun is an "irish man".

    Tanuki are also likened to dogs, and are infamous for having ridiculously huge balls and scrotums with matching epic sagginess. Some mythology has this feature shared between both sexes, like some hyenas.

  • There are Some Opcional Rules In The Unearthed Arcana.

    Paladin Variants.

    Paladin Of Freedom = Chaotic good.

    Paladin Of Tyranny =Lawful Evil

    Paladin Of Slaughter = Chaotic Evil.

    Weel In The 3.0 And 3.5 You Can Apply This If You Want.

    Death To The 4.0 edition... I Dont Like It

  • heh heh... nerd rant

  • Gary Gygax T_T

  • Ironic because Garry Gygax is dead now.

  • I went to post that but then I saw your comment... Ironic...

  • *burries face in arms and starts crying*

  • DX

    WHYYYYYY.

    The good die so soon.

  • He was like 69, dude.

  • i would marry mark. in a heartbeat.

  • roflmho

  • lmao

  • I mean seriously you guys

  • RIP Gygax :(

  • he's making a tornado in his grave

  • I don't even know what the fuck you're talking about, lol. I suck at World of Warcraft -do you really expect much from a teenage girl?- and I've never played DND in my life.

    But you guys are the funniest things to surface in a long time. Keep at it~!

  • Never DnD'ed D:

    My Poor Poor Girl lets find you an online group reight away lol

  • wyrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! rofl

  • OBJECTION! D&D 4th drops any alignment restrictions on Paladins! No contradictions remain!

  • Gary Gygax is dead

    Now I'm sad D:

  • I know! =(

  • "You'd have to be a rookie Green Lantern"

    Oh jeez. You guys really do know your shit.

  • "if Garay Gigax was dead" lol.

  • Adam Hughes Power-girl?

    Oh- Puh-LEASE

  • whaaaaaaaaaaa????

  • Wyrrrrrrrrr

  • Guys, he says "IF Gary Gygax was dead..."

    the word IF is rather noticeable. Now stop talking about it.

  • I hope that I'm never, ever mentioned in their videos.

    I mean, on the one hand, I don't want to die 81 days later.

    On the other hand, I wouldn't want to keep them from having a good streak going.

    It'd be a real catch 22 for me.

  • I don't really see the Catch-22 here :|

  • Shh! Don't tell anyone I'm misusing the term.

  • It's not like anyone who hasn't read the book would understand how the term is used :P

  • The Adam Hughes Powergirl poster in the background was a nice touch.

  • Gary died March 4, 2008

    The Vid was posted December 13, 2007

  • That makes it kinda sad

  • This video is full of win!

    Sad that a lot of the arguments don't make sense anymore, especially regarding the DnD rules. 4e: Because alignment gets in the way of beating stuff up...

  • Absolutely necessary video. Great stuff.

  • Well guys to be fair this video was made before Gary Gygax died.

  • how did he die?

  • Shame Gary died

  • LMAO

  • this came out before gary died

  • ...Gary Gygax is dead :'(

  • Gary Gygax (who invented D&D with Dave Arneson in 1974) did die in March of this year. He failed his saving throw. ;p

  • I gave Tanuki the lols up.

  • But wait Gerry is dead...

  • Not when this was made.
