Excellent content ser

9:00 is that Matrim Cauthon artwork? lol
An inch to a mile.... that's some girth
Great video
Thanks so much!
Mephistopheles making daddy Asmodeus proud that he wants to take his place lol
Is this the background music from villages and heros? Lol
This is all commercial free music so I wouldn't be surprised if you hear it in many projects. Thanks Kevin Mcleod :D
Seems a lot like society and relationships in today's world
Just with spiders.
Thank you for this video helped me fast forward 2 hours of work and help me get an idea of my rp
Thanks for watching! I'm glad it helped.
The narration is painfully monotone.
Thanks for the feedback, I tried to improve it. Listen to the newer stuff.
@@Lorepaedia I'm glad you took the feedback well, I hope your channel does great.
Necromancer the natural enemy of the necrophile
... or best friend depending on the necromancer's attitude. :x
Your video made me want to read "Making of a Mage" again.
It's a good recommendation.
discord link expired :(
That would explain some things :x sorry about that, I will update the link. discord.gg/WK8V8kJtJX
Clawing claws being described: harp music begins playing.
They're good pluckers.
I’m rarely moved to leaving likes on TH-cam videos, but the Rocky Road to Shanatar did it
Thanks so much, it was fun to sing it haha.
This is so good. I'm running a one-shot in a couple of weeks, where players will travel into Minauros. I've delved into its lore already, yet you still manage to inspire me with new insights. Keep it up, and thank you:).
Thanks so much! I need to finish the new video.
Love the content but please work a bit on your naration it's monotone af
Working on it, sorry. Try the newer videos.
@@Lorepaedia Oh don't you worry buddy I'm devouring your content like a starving beast hahahaha.cheers!!
I love this
Thanks so much. I'm having a hard time starting up again so stuff like this really gets me motivated.
drow are one of those races you get to run, cause you likely know more about them than yor players
True!
Now this is a lovely channel mate! Congrats 🎉 mind sharing the bame of the song at 6:00?

I love everything except your pronunciation of kraken it’s crack-en not crey-ken
this is AI generated content, yes?
The images are and it helps me process the source material into scripts. The narration is me.
music is too high bud; i love ur videos; but the music is too much; i want to focus on the story, not dnd elven tavern music i can find on youtube
Thanks, I will try to balance it better.
I think its funny that the art if the crawling claw is a right hand. Even though he just said they are made from left hands always. Lol
😅
These fantasy worlds > Real world
truth.
Absolutely love your videos, I love listening to your videos while I work, study and before I go to bed. It's hard to find long form slow paced DnD content so I'm glad I found your channel!
Thanks so much. I've been stuck on liches for a while, comments like these help me keep going!
My sleep health salutes you 🌛🌛🌛
Pleasant dreams!
Doing a baldurs gate 3 run as a female drow and wanted a video explaining drow lore as i'm completely new to dnd. This video has all the info i ever want, thank you!
Thanks so much, I'm glad it helped. I still need to do a video on surface drow and some of the "good ones" but I think it's a pretty comprehensive guide to normie drow. :D
I don't think that any source books claim that male drow are stronger than females......
Would be great video if your voice had more inflection
Thanks for the feedback, I tried to improve the inflection a bit in future videos. Let me know what you think.
Do more dragons
Will do!
What is the background song you use for these fantastic videos?
It's mostly kevin mcleod stuff. I basically raided the youtube creator music library for anything that sounded remotely epic fantasy.
I don’t understand why Asmodeus allows Mephistopheles to carry on with his schemes. If Asmodeus’s goal is to keep devils busy with the Blood War in order to advance his plan of dominating the outer spheres, then it would also serve him well to have the arch devils that stay focused to that end. Mephistopheles doesn’t really participate in the Blood War, and he doesn’t do more than the bare minimum for the soul tithe, either. It would be better for Asmodeus to promote and allow devils to rule layers that are focused on the Blood War. They’ll have their attention directed towards a war that can’t be won, the demons of the Abyss will be further culled yet never actually conquered, and Asmodeus will have to do minimum culling of uppity devils as the only ones that rise will be those that perform in the Blood War.
I assume this is what the devils talk about after work (albeit carefully)
Oh wow vampires are scary!
What is this enchanting music you use when creating these videos?
It's all copyright free stuff on youtube because anything else they send the drones after me. Most of it is the legendary Kevin Mcleod.
Thank you for including links to the background music. Gods bless you.
It's all free music you can use on your own videos too!
9:20 "This inclusivity extends to race-" Hahaaaaa! Bullshit. They don't allow the more monstrous species or even Tritons (who are the poster "stab evil in the face with my trident" of the sea, to join.
Fishscrimination! >:(
I like how it says, vampires are inherently automatically, however several of the mentioned vampires are altruistic (Shulgi, Hezas Nemar).
Yes this is a weird trend in DnD creatures. Say they are all inherently evil then list like 100 exceptions lol.
I love this thumbnail...😄👍

When did Vampires start having Dred Locks?
Around 130 DR
I originally came here to find out what a white is because ive been listening to my vampire system.....😅 can someone explain to me in detail what a white really is? *EDIT* because I didn't fully watch this to the end I don't know if they said what a white is or not.😢 *RE-EDIT* i know what a white is now. I watched the rest of it.
According to the Wiki, they are undead creatures that are created through a manifestation of evil deeds and desires they had in life, which is harnessed by an evil divine force to animate them. They drain the life force of living creatures and can make new wights this way. They hate sunlight and are usually found underground. They are distinguished from other similar undead like ghouls by how they are made and the fact that they don't consume the living physically, rather they drain life energy.
@Lorepaedia ty for explaining.... I was so confused 😕🤔
@@Shanny_The_Random Yeah the typology of undead in DnD is kind of a hot mess lol, it can be confusing.
@Lorepaedia i see lol. My vampire system is the first time ive heard of them
I've always wanted to run a campaign that takes place entirely in underwater in the ocean but can't even begin to imagine the difficulties that could arise from that. For instance, basically every entity, players included being able to move in three dimensions. I guess that that kind of underwater environment would actually be so alien to humans is kinda why I'm apprehensive about even attempting it. I once did a short spell jammer campaign and it was really difficult because of the three dimensional nature of space.
Good work! I have always been a fan of the Drow! I remember seeing them the first time back in my AD&D days back in the 80s. They weren't a exactly a playable race as they are now. About a year ago my Drow fetish returned when I started to reread the Drizzt novels & catch up to current. I just finished book "The Two Swords."
Thanks! I still need to circle back around to surface drow and then drizzt.
Wayyy too quite cant hear anything
Sorry, I think I improved it in future videos :x
A couple minutes in you mention wood elves having a "strong aversion" to arcane magic. Do you have any references for that? I know they tend towards druid magic more often, but "strong aversion" makes it sound like they'd banish and shun practitioners and I haven't found any evidence of that yet.
I am almost always drawing from the wiki unless it is particularly bare (Krakens is one example that comes to mind. In this case the source cited on the wiki is Reynolds, Forbeck, Jacobs, Boyd (March 2003). Races of Faerûn. (Wizards of the Coast), pp. 45-47. ISBN 0-7869-2875-1.
It's interesting that being a devil apparently makes it almost mandatory for you to be ridiculously hot.
Things get a lot less hot in the abyss, I'm a little worried.
Your thumbnail art looks like an ex from a long time ago
Dang, could do worse than thumbnail lady lol
