Changes: Some Kind of Jazz Werewolf

Revision as of 19:13, 3 April 2018

Description

A full moon is no time for a werewolf. A tiny cave is no place to be trapped with a werewolf. The Dragon Friends ponder these universal truths when suddenly a challenger appears!

Synopsis

When Bobby encounters Philge, Freezo and Baston in a cave, he notices that they are not paying attention, so he ties their shoelaces together and then yells "Fire!" Which causes them to fall over. After everyone is stood up again (and Bobby gives Philge an apology hug), they ask him where he has been and why he is carrying chains and a huge sack of raw steaks. He explains that he had a vision from Pelor telling him to come to this cave. He admits that his transition into a werewolf has been difficult and he has started chaining himself up for the Full Moon because he loses control.

Baston lights a fire inside the cave, which is a terrible idea. Then they tie up Bobby (not very well) and immediately fall asleep. Bobby predictably transforms into a werewolf; Freezo dashes for the exit, but runs into a strangely-dressed villager with a pot on his head. Without learning anything else about him, Freezo immediately declares that he has no respect for him. This begins the rivalry between Freezo and the human fighter, Edvard Oswick.

Edvard has traveled across Barovia to track down a fearsome beast which has killed all the livestock in his home town of Wickshire. Freezo tries to convince Edvard to kill Bobby. The werewolf personality of Robert emerges and smoothly pleads innocence about having killed livestock. The others struggle to contain and/or kill him.

Themes, tropes and running jokes

Tie Their shoelaces - Bobby ties Philge & Freezo's shoelaces together upon their emotional reunion. (Baston doesn't want to be left out so he falls over, too.)
Robert - Bobby is struggling with his Lycanthropy
Baffling Reference for our International Listeners - Simon jokes about Australian journalist Juanita Phillips
