Imagine a comedy TV show for magical tech support. Cranky burned out wizards trying to solve magical bugs for fustrated wizard customers.

Fuck I'd watch the shit out of it.

Hey @[email protected]

Write us a sketch comedy episode of Gandalf contacting up Tech support because this particular spell isn't working. Patrick will troubleshoot the problem. In the end it's Darth Vader who figures out the solution.

Title: "Spellbound Tech Support"

Scene 1: Gandalf is in his study, trying to cast a spell, but it's not working. He's getting frustrated and decides to call tech support.

Gandalf: (on the phone) "Yes, hello. I'm having trouble with a spell, it's not working as it should."

Patrick: (a cranky, burned-out wizard on the other end of the phone) "Okay, sir, can you please tell me the name of the spell and the incantation you're using?"

Scene 2: Gandalf and Patrick are on the phone, with Patrick trying to troubleshoot the problem.

Gandalf: "The spell is called 'Flame of Anor' and the incantation is 'Ignis exortus Anor'."

Patrick: "Hmm, that should be working. Have you tried using a different wand? Sometimes the wand can be the problem."

Gandalf: "I've been using the same wand for centuries, it's not the problem."

Patrick: "Well, I'm not sure what to tell you, sir. Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

Gandalf: (sarcastically) "Yes, I've tried turning the spell off and on again. That's not the problem."

Scene 3: Gandalf is still on the phone with Patrick, but they're not making any progress.

Patrick: "I'm sorry, sir, but I'm not sure what else to try. I'll have to transfer you to one of our senior tech support wizards."

Gandalf: (frustrated) "Fine, transfer me."

Scene 4: Gandalf is now on the phone with Darth Vader, who's working as a senior tech support wizard.

Darth Vader: (in his iconic, deep voice) "Lord Gandalf, I sense a disturbance in your spell. The problem is not with your wand, but with the ingredients you're using. You're using dragon's fire, but the spell requires phoenix feathers."

Gandalf: (surprised) "Phoenix feathers? I didn't know that. Thank you, Darth Vader, you've been most helpful."

Darth Vader: "It's my job, Lord Gandalf. May the force be with you."

Scene 5: Gandalf is back in his study, with the correct ingredients. He casts the spell and it works perfectly.

Gandalf: (to himself) "I'll have to remember to use phoenix feathers next time. And maybe not call tech support."

End of Episode.

r/RPGMemes, I hope you enjoy this sketch comedy episode of Gandalf contacting tech support for a spell that's not working. Special thanks to trolololol for the fantastic concept.
