I mean, the Barbarian asked the one question and didn't gain anything from it. Knowing which one is the liar doesn't... help anymore.
That's why this is a brilliantly played barbarian. They think they are clever but will still have to do things the hard way.
Ah. Normally I see this with no limit on questions. You're right. It'd only work with at least two questions.
You can ask both guards if an item is an item. "Does this cup contain fluid" would work, it doesn't have to be a dead guy.
Well, obviously. But a barbarian might have a preference.
That's why it's funny.
That assumes the other guy holds to his principles in the face of death. If I were the dm, the act of tearing the other guy's head off and then threatening to do the same to the other one unless granted another question would at least grant advantage on an intimidation check
I've always seen it as outside of their control. It's not that the lying guard chooses to lie, it's that they're incapable of not lying.
I mean, he could still lie. He'd just have to afford one more question
