A hat screams at you about D&D and how to make it weird.

Pointy Hat (also known as Antonio Demico) is an artist and YouTube creator, focusing on Dungeons & Dragons. He specializes in creating homebrew content, with the specific purpose of giving it a twist that feels fresh within the constraints of the game, hence the name of his first and most prominent show, D&D with a Twist. Other series he's known for include:

  • Tip of the Hat, which provides advice to both DMs and Players on how to make the game itself more enjoyable and fresh (Essentially, D&D with a Twist applied to D&D itself).
  • Which Lich, which focuses exclusively on liches, making a powerful undead monster based on each class.
  • Drag-On Race, which is the same concept as Which Lich, but with dragons.
His YouTube channel can be found here, his Twitter page can be found here, and his Twitch channel can be found here.

Tropes:

  • Knight Templar: From his Cleric video, Mercedes is the devout leader of the Church of the All-Seer, dedicated to eliminating corruption wherever it hides through any means necessary. It just so happens that those means usually involve torture.
  • Non-Human Sidekick: Inverted. Pointy, the living hat, refers to his real life self, Antonio, as his "Human Familiar."
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: Pointy seems to be able to shift his form at will, from merely making his eye look different to changing his colors to even growing new extremeties, like a tail and horns for his Devil form, or Angel wings and a halo for his Angel form.
