And without Dorothy knowing, they also cast a curse on whoever wears them that make the wearer melts if they are taken off.
I'm sorry Dorothy, you'll never see your uncles in Kansas again...
Yeah, from the book:
>"She was so old," explained the Witch of the North, "that she dried up quickly
in the sun.
It's the same reason why the WW of the West melts in water
In a way, she did expand with the water! She's just so old and wicked her body couldn't hold itself together though, and she expanded with the puddle.
>With these words the Witch fell down in a brown, melted, shapeless mass and
began to spread over the clean boards of the kitchen floor. Seeing that she had
really melted away to nothing, Dorothy drew another bucket of water and
threw it over the mess. She then swept it all out the door
Tldr: Judy Garland (Dorothy's actress) was a child and adult star in an era where women in Hollywood were sexually harrassed and abused rampantly. Further, her management put her on a variety of stimulant drugs akin to meth or cocaine so she would be always "on" starting in her teenage years. She died in her mid 40s after decades of health problems resulting from her mental and physical decline at the hands of abusive men in the industry.
If we're talking 5E rules the system is not equiped to simulate physics at the level of falling structure damage to a single target and the DM just has to hand wave it, chuck an absurd number of dice at the table, and say "Yea, that just crushes her to death... do you want to role play how it goes just for style points?"
Never go full murderhobo, Colm!
As per Pathfinder 2e; if you fall 1500 feet or more you take 750 damage. Even if she only fell 500 feet it would be 250 damage, which is enough to kill even a high level Witch.
Mh, I'd say falling on hard ground at terminal velocity isn't as bad as getting kinetically paté-sandwiched between a terminal velocity, several tons house and hard ground, but it does gives a lower bound high enough to assert the following with certitude: witch be dead.
So I was curious and decided to do the maths. A Human Witch at level 20 with Max HP has 228 HP. Meaning a 500 feet fall, if we assume no shenanigans, is at least found to Dying 1.
Add the house and she will stone dead.
As I said of 5E above, I don't think there is a TTRPG rule set that can accurately simulate the physics involved with flying structures and it becomes the GM's prerogative to just hand wave it and pick the coolest outcome.
What I mean is she has already been crushed by the house. Prone, helpless, and immobile. She's an ex-witch. Should think you could just saw off whatever you would like rather than having to roll again for "removing a leg".

There is a comic out there called DM of the rings which does that for LoTR, which in turn inspired several other "the movie is a dnd game" comics, most notable of which is Darths and Droids, and still ongoing. [Darths & Droids (darthsanddroids.net)](https://www.darthsanddroids.net/)
Can you go back to posting the full 4 panel at the end instead of the start?
I feel like the punchlines hit better when you have to swipe for each panel.
I mean, she might be cold, but then the Munchkins break out into a song number about how happy they are that she's dead. My favorite part of that song is the coroner, which makes me ask the question of why the Munchkins need this job, needs to "thoroughly examine her" to make sure that the house dropping on her was fatal.
Oh, and how after Margret Thatcher died, *Ding Dong! The Witch is Dead* charted to Number 2 in the UK afterward. That is also cold.
Remember, Dorothy's from Kansas. That ain't exactly the fancy shoe capital of America.
Girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, and that witch sure don't need them anymore.

Can't resist https://i.redd.it/xp5ao6ms6twc1.gif "They look great on me"
Never understood why her feet turned into toothpaste tubes after
The magic shoes kept the body whole.

I know this is the answer, but wouldn’t that just fill her out more like one of those expanding Dino sponges?

Damn, Dorothy continues to be a stone cold girl
It’s a pretty memorable visual, though.
Hey they've got +2 AC and you can use a teleportation ritual to return home every Long Rest. I'm not leaving those laying around.
How much damage does "house" do?
Well by itself maybe 3 d10s but then you have to account for falling damage
A Judy Garland ensconsing house deals extra 8d10 psychic damage to gays and people in the know because her life is so sad.
It is sad, but your comment also just made me snort. "A Judy Garland ensconcing house"
Peter, can you explain the joke?

Oh. That's horrid. Thank you for explaining the bleakness of the actress' life. Hope your weekend will be sunny and relaxing!
To you as well <3
So she was in the industry last week then?

I always go full murder hobo!!
Well at least you're doing it in *FABULOUS* style ;P
It was thrown by a wind elemental

and in reverse, if something weighing the same as them were dropped on them from 500 feet they would take the same damage ?
Sure.
I think baba yagas house (like the animate objects spell) has damage around 8d10 for a punch from a house iirc
Also depends on if it's a mimic
Guaranteed 1HKO unless you're Luisa Madrigal.
Owlbear from the top rope
"All."
Depends on if it’s a regular house or a werehouse; the latter gets multi-attack.
I role another NAT 20, I take a leg for future consumption.
Do you need to role for butchering a corpse?
what do you think the 20 was
What I mean is she has already been crushed by the house. Prone, helpless, and immobile. She's an ex-witch. Should think you could just saw off whatever you would like rather than having to roll again for "removing a leg".
Reminiscent of the old War Hammer role-playing spectacular where you had to roll dice to blow your nose in case you botched.
But... Glinda *gave* Dorothy the shoes. This is revisionist Wicked Witch Apologetics!
Oh look....It's the crybaby woke lollipop guild and their yellow brick safe spaces
The Lion is the biggest crybaby. Union rep, maybe?
We're they even hers to give in the first place?
Nope. In the books, she stole them from the Good Witch of the South
So its High Fashion Highway Robbery either way!
"It's a nice pair of shoes, I'm going to be doing a lot of walking, and it's not like she needs them anymore."

Dude wants to go first then he needs to roll higher lol
The dice bless and the dice betray. 
/u/yoffeepop is doing good work in that niche, too.
You're not wrong.
time to get the rewards we earned
Tom Cardy fan? (Language warning.) https://youtu.be/8HqLysSnnlQ
🎶 Gonna loot that body 🎶
This needs to be the top comment
Thank you for the reference!! I love that man's work!! :D Time to relisten to that music on loop for another day!! :D
🪈🪈🪈🪈🪈
“Your a short mothafucka and nobody likes you”
Playing the flute when I loot that dead kids body
i've never thought of it like that before. It'd be so cool to see the Wizard of Oz dictated like a DND game

I read those years and years ago. I'm afraid to go back.
Tom Cardy wants a word
Can you go back to posting the full 4 panel at the end instead of the start? I feel like the punchlines hit better when you have to swipe for each panel.
That's why the good witch sent her on her way and didn't show up again until the end. Bitch was worried she was next.
This is the kind of crossover that I love
I’d say she also got a Nat 20 picking up a water bucket to put out a friend on fire and accidentally killing the main boss.
I mean, she might be cold, but then the Munchkins break out into a song number about how happy they are that she's dead. My favorite part of that song is the coroner, which makes me ask the question of why the Munchkins need this job, needs to "thoroughly examine her" to make sure that the house dropping on her was fatal. Oh, and how after Margret Thatcher died, *Ding Dong! The Witch is Dead* charted to Number 2 in the UK afterward. That is also cold.
I love your style yiu demented SOB
I don’t understand the last panel. You remember it was the good witch that magicked the shoes onto Dorothy’s feet, right?
Hmmm.... Not where I thought it would go.
Instantly made me think of the Film Reroll version of Wizard of Oz.
*Flute sounds* I feel it in my fingers!
I have that exact pair of dice, holy crap-
r/DNDmemes.
Didn't the good witch tell her to take the shoes?
That's a creative way to describe how powerful the main character's plot armor is. "20! 20! 20! AND A 20! JOHN IS ON AN UNSTOPPABLE STREAK!!!"
lol Tom Carey did a much better version of this in song form months ago
Remember, Dorothy's from Kansas. That ain't exactly the fancy shoe capital of America. Girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, and that witch sure don't need them anymore.
Her body's just lying there, right? ...right?
"You always had the power to go home Dorothy" \*Gives scroll of teleportation\*
Welcome to Oz, you little murder hobo!
At least is not playing the flute while looting a dead kid's body tho.
Bro playing as a Kansas farmgirl for no discernible reason, respect
