Odd things you need for crafting - Ingredients In this entertaining YouTube video titled "Odd things you need for crafting - Ingredients," part of a comedic series by Viva La Dirt League, viewers are introduced to the quirky and absurd requirements for crafting a sword in a fantasy setting. The skit presents a humorous dialogue between an adventurer and a blacksmith, where the blacksmith outlines the bizarre ingredients needed to forge an "ashen sword" necessary for slaying a wraith. Among the expected items like iron and gold ingots, the list spirals into the ludicrous with the inclusion of:
  • A green sapphire
  • Undead ash
  • A dragon's tooth
  • A spider's eye
  • An old leather shoe
  • A broken guitar
  • A half-eaten sandwich
  • Mashed potato
  • A dead frog
  • A hen's tooth
  • And ultimately, a "blessed goblet from the temple of Kalibor filled to the brim with goblin feces."
This improv-style skit captures the essence of fantasy tropes while lampooning the often convoluted crafting systems found in many games. The humor resonates especially well with gaming communities familiar with the absurdities often encountered in RPGs.

Highlights:​

  • The dialogue effectively mixes relatable crafting frustrations with outlandish requests, appealing to both fantasy enthusiasts and gamers.
