It's been a while since I last posted a blog, and to be honest, it's because I didn't want to write one for this episode. This is probably my least favorite episode, and it's entirely my fault. We needed to get a special set of golden armor from the blacksmith (named Dylan), and I remember telling Zach that he's going to want something in return, so we can't just show up and say "Give us magical armor or we'll beat you to a pulp." So the plan was to do a simple quest, kind of like something you would find in an RPG. So here is the plot:
Go into an abandoned mine and find some iron.
Take the iron to the psychedelic hipster in exchange for cake.
Take the cake to Dylan the blacksmith to appease his appetite so he will make us some magic armor.
Sound dumb? It is. It was totally ridiculous, but at the end of the day, ridiculousness is what ID10T's is all about, so we went for it. Zach only agreed to this silly plot if we added monsters to fight in the abandoned mine shaft. It's a dumb episode, I know, but we tried our best to make sure we never put up another episode as bad as that again.
Fun Fact: The guy that played the voice for the blacksmith Dylan is actually named Dylan, but he is better known as the voice of Herman the Hermit.
