Story Time! Any stories about succeeding only to fail at the last second?
Transcript:
Rainbow Dash: Alright, then… First up, weaving between the cloud pillars! Fluttershy: What about us? We can still cheer and help out, right? DM: Yep. Saying something encouraging adds a small bonus to the Athletics and Acrobatics checks. Now, Rainbow, roll me a skill challenge. Rainbow Dash: <roll> Applejack: YEE-HAW! Go get 'er! Rainbow Dash: <roll> Pinkie Pie: Kill 'em! You're killin' it! DM: What? Pinkie Pie: She's a Barbarian. What else would my cheer be? DM: Ah. Rainbow Dash: <roll> Twilight Sparkle: Uh… Hoo-rah? Team spirit? Rainbow Dash: <roll> DM: Thaaat's just a little bit short. You accidentally impact one of the pillars and get thrown off course at the last second. Not a great finish, but overall an okay phase. Rarity: If only "okay" were enough… Fluttershy: …Yay?
