Both of the guards have a handle. If the guard that always lies pulls his handle, then the minecart will divert to the second track. If both guards pull their handle, the prisoners will be released. One of the handles is covered by a wooden box, where half of the wooden planks of the original box have been replaced by new ones cut from a tree that fell when nobody was around. If guard A is taller than guard B, are we getting paid for this quest?
I suppose the DM has a contingency plan for if someone casts Zone of Truth
But does the DM have a contingency plan if someone casts Fireball?
Guardian portraits, because whoever wrote the “ordinary-looking furniture with counterspell” statblock was presumably really fed up of their sorcerer player
If this was a real captcha, even a human couldn’t solve it because you can’t question the guards… They’re just an image. 😔
But imagine if the human check became some crazy Voigt-Kampf test with problems such as this that require a type of problem solving skill humans have but an AI doesn’t.
Please select all squares with a tortoise that you flipped out it’s back and type the reason you’re not helping in the box below.
My favorite take on the always tells lies/always tells truths puzzle is that the explanation itself was also a lie and both guards will say whatever they think is funniest because guarding is boring work.
I did do that about 800 comics ago ;)
Do I include the square with the tiny portions of the feet or no?
When drawing this, I eyeballed it, but I tried to aim it to leave these tiny portions - because that’s more accurate to the CAPTCHA experience.
“Which way is west?”
I dunno, can’t see the Sun from inside a dungeon
This one’s the Truthsayer, other one is a liar.
Unless he absolutely does know which way is west because he has, like, gone outside at least once. Or owns a compass.
The part about not being able to see the sun is almost certainly true, though, and the usual premise of the riddle is that one of them ONLY tells the truth and one ONLY lies.
As such, either you’re in something as implausible as a dungeon with a skylight or that guard is the truth teller.
