Counter Monkey/Heartwarming

---

• Vampire - Spoony's Jyhad, at least in-universe. Mainly Crowning Moment of Awesome, but the greater implications push it into Heartwarming territory when Spoony's Brainwashed and Crazy Woobie completely destroys a tyrannical vampire hierarchy in one fell blow, which is possibly the most heroic thing one can do in Vampire: The Requiem, subverting the Exclusively Evil mentality that permeates the setting. Sadly, the GM didn't clear it, but Spoony was well in-character when he did that.
  • Plus his rant about his dislike for the current version of the game because it's impossible to play anything but a Complete Monster, and role playing games should be about heroes.
  • Also how he advises the Newbie to go home. He wanted No innocents getting hurt. Granted, he did use the Newbie as a distraction to keep the Prince and the Auspex guy busy while he smuggled the Semtex into the bathroom, but hey, he did give him the recommendation.
• His account of the sendoff to his longest running RPG character, Tandem the Spoony. After making it through a horrendously difficult campaign against all odds, Tandem and the only other survivor find themselves with a ship that can cross dimensions, so they first go home to resurrect their friends, and then everyone was last seen sailing away to whatever adventures await them next. It's great that after Spoony came to regret asking for his character to be demoted from godhood so he could use him some more, he was still able to give him such a fitting ending, while still leaving the door open for his return someday.
• Spoony using a lot of his D&D game with the other Channel Awesome people as reference for his Counter Monkeys video on how to be a good Dungeon Master. You can really tell he looks back on that game with great fondness and how much fun he and his friends all had.
• In the second part of the second Pathfinder session, Iron Liz is lamenting the fact that she could have used colour spray to help the party, half of whom died. The others console her by pointing out it would barely have done anything and insist she shouldn't feel responsible for party members dying.
