* BreakThemByTalking: The Bard has access to a technique called Vicious Mockery, where he hurls an insult towards the enemy to hurt them and weaken their incoming attack.

* DirtyCoward: Porky the Pig Dwarf. He refuses to involve himself in the action, flees at the first sight of physical conflict, and never does more than comment in the background while the trio does most of the work. This is Subverted at the very start, but only thanks to the Bard using a [[ItOnlyWorksOnce Suggestion]] on him, which caused Porky to attack the Oreo and get the first Natural 20 of the game. Even worse, [[spoiler:he tries to take advantage of Walter's defeat to quickly get his hands on the staff to seize power for his company, Walgreens]].

*** The Wizard slips an Oreo up with milk, but gets caught in it herself. The Barbarian misses his attack with a bad roll and slips on the milk as well.

* InformedFlaw: The cast is "cursed" with a condition that limits their thoughts and controls according to a new singular braincell (read: Twitch chatter) every few turns, so their motivation for getting Walter's staff is to cure themselves of it. Throughout the campaign, however, the chat is able to keep the characters consistent in both personality and performance, and they even manage to [[spoiler:survive until the very end of the story]]. They ultimately decide [[spoiler:that what they have isn't really a curse and break the staff]].

* TheLoad: Porky is the questgiver for this campaign, and he tags along with the trio as they explore the Walmart. Aside from giving advice and one moment where he's forced by the Bard to join the fight, he spends much of the time yelling orders, cowering in the corner, or getting in the way. Even when the Barbarian later decides to [[FastballSpecial use him as a weapon]], he's not a very good one.

** Upon learning that the ruler of Walmart is named Walter, Chat started spouting [[Series/BreakingBad "waltuh... put your dick away, waltuh"]] memes. Face to face, the Bard dares Walter to "put your staff away, Waltuh!".
** The Powerpoint slide of the Bard remarks that he looks like [=RTGame=].

* SlapSlapKiss: The Bard and The Wizard had an established relationship prior to this adventure that ended with their divorce. Throughout the campaign, the chatters throw the idea of them getting back together around, until it eventually creates a mini-RomanceArc where [[spoiler:they eventually [[WillTheyOrWontThey rekindle their relationship]] halfway through]]. They still end up bickering after this, though.

* ThrowTheDogABone: Porky spends the whole campaign being harassed and abused. [[spoiler:Even his villainous reveal doesn't get him any more respect from Doug or the players]]. At ''one'' point he gets to be awesome, though: on the first floor, the Bard motivates him to jump into the fight instead of cowering in the corner. He proceeds to roll the first Nat 20 of the campaign and one-shots an enemy with gusto, getting an acknowledgement of respect from the Bard for it.

In response, the Bard uses his Vicious Mockery ability on the Mop to convince him that his interference cost the Fridge his life, which depresses the Mop so much it kills him.

In this [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Eck0yY1W-8 video]], WebVideo/DougDoug has Chat take the reins of a deranged TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons game, where they roleplay as the ditzy Barbarian, the sassy Bard, and the divorced Wizard. Together, the three will venture inside a magical UsefulNotes/{{Walmart}} to fight a warlock known as Walter, alongside the mayor of Wall-Town, a cowardly pig-dwarf named Porky. Will Twitch Chat be able to take Walter and his magical staff down, or will the demons of Walmart prove too much for them?

* ArtisticLicenseMedicine: For the [[PlayedForLaughs sake of comedy]], of course:
** Wizard takes an entire bottle of painkillers to heal 1 point of health.
** Bard manages to [[spoiler:come back from the verge of death]] after Wizard kicks him upside the head.



* BornUnlucky: Barbarian can't catch a break with his constant low rolls, even getting a few [[CriticalFailure Nat-1's]]. In true ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' fashion, it doesn't stop him from contributing quite a bit to the adventure.



* ComicallyIneptHealing: The Bard loses his last heart from Walter's fireball near the end. Knocked unconscious and being the only one on the team with actual healing powers, it's up to Wizard to try to stabilize him... by [[spoiler:kicking him awake]]. What's more astounding is [[spoiler:that it actually works thanks to a Natural 20]]!



* GentleGiant: The Barbarian acts like a very supportive frat bro, being god friends with the Bard and the Wizard, and even showing some affection to Porky during the [[spoiler:first]] battle at the Toys Department.

Added DiffLines:

* HealingHands: The Bard can cast Cure Wounds and is the team's designated healer.
* HealingPotion:
** Porky stumbles upon a bottle of Advil, which Doug ascribes the ability to recover 1 point of health to whoever consumes it. Barbarian and Wizard intimidate him into handing it over, and Wizard heals by [[ArtisticLicenseMedicine downing the entire bottle]].
** Doug explains at the end that he also would've made Bert a shopkeeper for similar healing items, but ultimately couldn't do it since none of the players decided to talk with him.


Added DiffLines:

* ViolationOfCommonSense: Doug intends to reward players for choosing more out-of-pocket suggestions, though he will only follow through if they can accomplish the required rolls. The most notable one is when Bard goes down and Wizard has to save him. What does she do? [[spoiler:Kick him awake of course! And thanks to a Nat 20, it gets him a heart point back.]]

* TheChewToy: Porky is made to be this since he ends up contributing very little to the trio's efforts beyond cowering. Doug starts playing into the Chat's frequent mistreatment of the pig dwarf; it ranges from the party constantly telling him to shut up, the Bard throwing a bottle of bleach at him out of annoyance, and goes up to Barbarian using him in his attacks--as the weapon.

** The Wizard is known for being illiterate and has to ask Barbarian to read some of the labels on the food when they're in the Food Department.



* DumbMuscle: The Barbarian is the party's tank; an orc warrior with lots of strength but also stupid to the point where he can't tell left from right. Most of his rolls end up being very low, forcing him to start relying on Reckless Attack to make actions land.

** The Roomba is an [[ExaggeratedTrope even worse case]], trying to take the shortest possible traveling distance even if it means accidentally eating an ally on the way. It can't say anything else other than its own name and is easily fooled by the Wizard's illusory wall.


Added DiffLines:

* ExtremeOmnisexual: The Bard's character is made to fit [[HornyBard the stereotype]] and has Seduction as part of his skills. He flirts with numerous sentient creatures throughout the campaign, [[CasanovaWannabe albeit with very little success]].


Added DiffLines:

* TheGamblingAddict: Barbarian is established as having an addiction to gambling, which plays into both his use of a Reckless Attack that leaves him open for a lowered roll and (unintentionally) his low success rate with dice rolls in general. It's most notably seen when he tries to throw Porky at the Washing Machine over and over.


Added DiffLines:

* HornyBard: Before the start of the campaign, Doug allows for the Chat to decide on what traits each character should have. They naturally choose the most stereotypical one for The Bard and even make it so that The Wizard was previously romantically involved with him. He's genuinely surprised when she offhandedly mentions that they've had kids.


Added DiffLines:

* KnowNothingKnowItAll: Two of the character traits for Wizard result in this, as she's known to talk "like a HolierThanThou {{Website/Reddit}}or" yet is also illiterate.


Added DiffLines:

* NoodleIncident: One of the personality traits assigned to Bard is the fact that he's a {{Website/YouTube}}r that's been cancelled in the past. Plus, he and Wizard are recently divorced. Nothing indicates that the two traits necessarily coincide with one another.


Added DiffLines:

* TerribleArtist: It's established that Barbarian has been kicked out of art school.
