    [​IMG] I see absolutely no need for the autotuning though.

    Depressing thing is I have seen orcs dancing like that... And demons. The orcs are usually incredibly, incredibly drunk and lack the co-ordination.

    Just to amp up the nerd factor even further . . . in her lyrics she claims to be a wizard, although in her role pay she appears to be dressed as some sort of archer and also carries a shield, with no sign of any wands or scrolls. Is she some sort of Arcane Archer? Or is she clearly an impostor?

    That or an elven wizard. I know I normally role play my elven wizard with a rapier and a longbow personally since he is of royal blood.

    I refuse to believe that anyone who plays with dice and board games can be that fit. The lass at the beginning, I'd seriously smack her back doors in, especially if she smarted up a little.

    [​IMG] You say that but I've met a few who were... surprisingly attractive, shall we say? Invariably every single one was in a relationship already.

    Well, she says that in the "basement" late at night she's a wizard. They clearly aren't in a basement since there are windows next to their gaming table, so I can only conclude that she's a true geek and has another gaming group where she plays in a basement as a wizard, in addition to her Elven fighter/rogue archer! :idea:

    I'm hoping that character has some levels of rogue splashed in, otherwise that party is in some trouble.

    For some reason the DM is the wizard in the battle scenes, and second girl at the table isn't even present. Whatevs... cute girls showing up for D&D at all is a treat, even if they can't figure out what class they are. :p

    ---------- Added 10 hours, 9 minutes and 38 seconds later... ----------

    The real issue here is: who in the hell rolls a D6 to save vs. death!!??!!

    Ever heard of a D20 guys?

    I guess that explains why they chose to go with the D6 vs. the D20 in their lyrics.

    I showed the video to my wife and son. My wife's comment was, "yeah, girls who play dungeons and dragons look like that, right."

    My son thought it was funny.

    I think it's better than the G6 song you linked Tal.

    I've been singing it all week, and have come back to watch it at least 4 times. I have much of the lyrics memorized now.

    I've determined that there is something very sexy about a woman who's willing to sing about her geeky passions. Too bad my wife has 0 geek in her... she's a girly girl all the way. Oh well. There are some cute girls who show up to the D&D table, though. 8's a cutie, and she's no stranger to this stuff.

    Oh, and it seems that the girl in the video is in fact some form of wizard, because there is a scene where she's shooting lightning from her hands.

    ---------- Added 0 hours, 8 minutes and 47 seconds later... ----------

    Just watched it again. I love how the girl gets all awkward at the beginning trying to explain what her "thing" that she "can't really bail on" is.

    I also love how they introduce the dwarf by lowering the camera at the last second so we can see his face. Half the time he's short, the other half the time he's just as tall as the rest of the party. :p

    I can't get this song out of my head either. It's the number one most popular song (out of 108) on iTunes that has the words "D6" in the title!
