Blue Balls - A 'Yes, Dungeon Master' sketch for Xmas 2009
Treguard Myatt has now been Dungeon Master of Knightmare Castle for six months and is becoming increasingly disillusioned with the role; in particular, he is growing tired of all the complaints he has to handle. Recognising that now may be the optimum time to get rid of his unwanted superior, Sir Hordriss decides to present him with a complaint logged by a prisoner with an embarrassing name, and turns it into an opportunity for a holiday.
Continuing in the vein of the comedy play Yes, Dungeon Master, released earlier this year, we present a comedy short featuring the same characters. And as is often the case with our (now-Annual) festive offerings, the skit is not set at Christmas, contains no reference to Christmas, and shows a distinct shortage of Christmas spirit. So naturally we're offering it as a Christmas present. Have a happy festive season, all of you. Well, most of you anyway.
