Average Party (Art by Shen Comix)

I’m usually the Evil Idiot. Like a Saturday morning cartoon villain.

I always wind up playing The Manipulator (aka The Smart One). Even when I’d rather play The Idiot.
The group I play with… they’re not dumb, but I am much better at puzzles & problem solving. So if I try to play a character who wouldn’t know how to get out of this-or-that situation, or wouldn’t know how to solve a puzzle, I wind up subtly nudging my cohorts into the right answers, and even then they don’t get my hints and I wind up outwardly handling the situation that my dimwitted character shouldn’t be able to handle.

I feel like the compulsive thief is missing
Smaller idiot usually takes that role, but all are known to indulge
-
The warrior went on a noble, world-saving quest, and they joined up with two idiots and a manipulator. Sounds like he’s not even smart enough to realise he’s also an idiot.
Meanwhile, the manipulator teamed up with three idiots, who she can probably manipulate easily. She’s going places.
And then they save the world and universe, so the warrior gets everything they want (plot permitting) while the manipulator (character) can simply never out-manipulate the DM who decides what reality is?

When I ran Savage Pathfinder, the characters ended up along almost exactly these lines.

Nah, they all get what they want. The world is saved, the idiot got the final blow and is hailed as a hero, the manipulator swindled a massive reward for their efforts, and the second idiot ate the reward. Or, more likely, the campaign falls apart long before they get to that bit.

Listen: you jump into a dungeon in the hopes that it’s going to lead to a better life in any way and not misery and death you are an idiot. Adventurers are self selected to be idiots.
Well, some of us might value our lives very little, so…there’s also that.

Pretty close
Poor warrior is getting ganked by idiots after being framed. All because he was too busy thinking about his quest.
-

That’s true. Some are suicidal idiots. Still idiots because there are better methods of suicide.

I’m the first two. My character is a himbo.

The long, drony, dry delivery of it. I may be wrong.
Just seems like a regular image description to me. I’m pretty sure Shen is anti-AI, so it wouldn’t make sense for him to use AI for this.

You forgot the
thiefrogue trying to steal everything from everyone and making them hostile towards the whole party half of the time -
Of all the things for the AI to mess up, I wouldn’t have expected inconspicuous typos. “A” instead of “an,” “orld” instead of “world”
Soon we will be labelling pictures from grammatically challenged people ‘AI’, whilst simultaneously labelling text from people not making enough spelling errors and using things like ellipsis (…) or em dash (—) also ‘AI’

Ok, thanks for the info.

Pretty close
