Rule Zero... You mean "Don't time travel to warn yourself not to time travel"?
Oh good, I'm early enough that I can say it first. Ahem:
Now that's what I call a stiletto heel!

If he hadn't made such a shoddy effort, she might have gone head-over-heels for him. As it is, his prize horse threw a shoe and the disappointment went straight to his head. His sole consolation is that he's well-heeled enough for the rich folk's prison. That's only farrier.
Eh, once it was down to PCs vs. boss on his own, and he's starting to get locked down, there's no point trying to stick with a rigid action economy in the comic representation of the game.
I, on the other hand, once had to pull out 'Complete Arcane' and actually show the GM exactly where it said that a warlock could crit with an eldritch blast, and he STILL didn't want to allow it... :(
I would definitely love to see an episode like this, and it fits the tabletop action as well as anything we've seen, so great job, ChrisTheS! :)
Well, the finale of Daring Don't comes reasonably close to this.
Also, I am hoping for something like this when Rockhoof and Flash Magnus get focus episodes.

For those who can't read music (or those who have trouble reading this particular music), it's a well-known little ditty ending in "aaah-aaah-aaah-AAAAAAH..." :)

Only in minor key, orchestral, and backed with both electric guitars and ominous tolling bells.
As it's Symphony of the Dark Court I figured it would be this version of (the original) theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rQfqclq2cI
Which means the question really boils down to: "How do you want to do this?"
Rarity should make that her signature weapon. It fits her so perfectly.
Not really. They are decent at jabbing into thing fabric, but needles are not exactly robust enough to handle any sort of armor (including a decent padded gambeson, which could withstand arrows from war bows). They also don't really have a secure enough grip, so you aren't going to be able to maximize power delivery.
So in short, daggers are better daggers than needles.

My bizarre job for this sequence was to somehow sell the fiction that this was playing out within the confines of a tabletop session running a real game system, while also letting the visuals sell the fiction that this would make an awesome episode of the show. And while I've had to shorthand a lot and, uh, ask that you don't think too hard about the action economy towards the end, I think we've managed to reach the home stretch with those fictions intact. It's been an experience.
Speaking of tabletop and bizarre fictions, here's another episode of that podcast about tabletop thieves!
