Cursed of Course II: The Second Thread

Hoo boy. That’s… yeah.

And that, dear children is why we let the trap monkey take the lead, not the meat shield.
Wait, you say they were all meat shields?
Well, that's were they went wrong.

So he was the leader huh?
Yeah, still giving Pellan the benefit of doubt, depending on the exact circumstances, but that ex-teammate of his is definitely understandably upset.
If you have to lead your party into a total wipe at least don't walk it off. Terribly bad manners that.

But Lord No Helmet deserves a arrow (trap) to the face?
Who does he think he is? A protagonist?
Not that it helped the others.
How is "Stay away from tragic backstories, especially those of other people" for an Aesop?

This is why you always have someone with Trapfinding in the FRONT.

Oh wait, someone’s already made that joke. It’s true though.

[Kantaki]

Really?

I mean, to be fair, they were a bit in a hurry here, but that's still just about the most straightforward trap Pellan could've triggered.

I see Pellan’s mouth was always smarter than their brain.

[TaiLiu]

Huh. I thought they were sandwiched between two walls, but it turns out there was this big open space. That makes the trap a lot less lethal.

Five bucks says that there was another trap right where someone would jump off there, assuming it wasn’t high enough for someone to just break their neck and die.

That makes sense. Like maybe a trap door or something.

Meanwhile, based on the number of spoken lines so far, I'm venturing a guess that Flat Top probably wasn't the party face.

EDIT: Wait a second, Too Cool to Wear a Helmet is Vengeful Undead Not-Pellan?! The swords they wield are certainly the same.
