Tambok's Special Friend Show

The Tambok Special Friend Show is a show that will supposedly occur during a campaign in the future. If a player holds a Tambok Ticket at the end of the campaign, they add one character from the Unforgotten Realms Live universe, whether they are alive or dead. Multiple characters who share the same body or form may only be selected if the player has a ticket for each individual character. Nothing is known about the campaign or the show aside from Rob's statement: "Tambok lives in a city where it doesn't matter if you are alive or dead, as long as you have a story about you."

Requirement for Activation

20 Tambok Tickets must be carried at the end of campaigns. These add up each campaign.

Trivia

• Originally, Vitali Zankovich's Tambok Ticket in Woodcarvers was destroyed due to Rolling a Critical Fail. However, Rob has since retconned the destruction of the Ticket from Critical Fail rolls, and thus, Deadbones was allowed to add a character to the show.
• Glamourous the Divine Being Glamourshark, was originally meant to be added to the Show, but Rob said "For reasons, he can't be in the show".
  • It has been stated by Rob that Tambok is a Divine Being in the Zarlin Catacombs Behind the Scenes video. He further explains that the reason Glamourous the Glamourshark cannot be in Tambok's Special Friend show because they are both Divine Beings, and Tambok cannot put another divine being in the show, theoretically because he isn't powerful enough to.
  • In addition to Divine Beings and Dragons not being allowed in the Show, Goblins are also not allowed to be added to the Show.
    • Terrence and Warren, originally added to the show, have since been retconned out of the show.

Theories

There are theories that Tambok's Special Friend show is related to the book people (race mentioned in the Lore Building Week), or the "Believers". The connection is made because of Rob's quote: "Tambok lives in a city where it doesn't matter if you are alive or dead, as long as you have a story about you".

• Another theory is that Tambok's Special Friend show is a large 24 person tournament based off of the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise (as "Kombat" is an anagram of Tambok) with 20 contestants being picked by the players via the Tambok Tickets. Roamin, Justin, Coestar, and Deadbones would then pick characters to play in order to complete the 24-man bracket, and a special campaign could play out to cover the "show." Mortal Kombat is also known to bring back characters from the dead since many characters die in each tournament. Friendship is a special form of finishing move (offering a friendlier alternative to the Fatalities filled with blood and gore) featured in the second and third Mortal Kombat games, and Tambok's "Special Friend Show" could be a reference to that as a result. Tambok could possibly be controlling the characters as he is a divine being.
  • With the tease of Rob's new game "Tambok", which is a game of UR Characters fighting to the death, it further supports this theory.
