Spelljammer, the best D&D setting for a MMO never used...
There was the Pirates of Realmspace computer game. It's a shame that didn't do better and get sequels.
Allods online was basically that. Then greed killed that game
Dammit. Now I want Fantasy Spelljammer EVE to be a thing.
@@stupidcommentmaker Bleh, no thanks, you KNOW the Goons would spoil it right?
there was also a pvp, later added pve game called worlds a drift, it was more survival than anything else but this these kinds of ships, too bad the game studio shut down along with the servers....
Whoa whoa whoa Rhexx, you kinda glossed over something right there at the end.
SPACE DRAGONS? Please elaborate
They are called stellar dragons
I agree!
He has. Astral dragons
Astral dragons come from the astral plane, not space.
But, do they boop?
"Space is big. I mean really, really, really big! You cant imagine just how vastly, hugely, mindbogglingly big it is! I mean, you might think its a long way down your street to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space! Listen..."
-Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy
Space is big... HYPERSPACE shrinks it by a bit tho LOL.
This is a topic you should feel you can go as in-depth about as you want! There's far to little easily accessible information or lore about Spelljamming!
there are forums for spelljammer fans. it really isn't that hard, if you want to just show up and ask some questions =P
(the one i personally frequent is at the piazza, which also has forums for numerous other settings that WotC mostly ignores, and some that WotC doesn't mostly ignore).
SharkForce It's okay, you can say everything WOTC ignores, and *also* Forgotten Realms
@@alicebrown6215 eh, they have some eberron content out now. can't say they're ignoring that anymore either.
So how has this man not written a dnd book on the history of dnd lore with all the research he has done.
sources are spread over all 5 editions, lore has fundamentally changer/reversed on some topics. It would like writting the map for a maze, when your only view point is 1st person from inside it (possible, but exhaustive, needing to hit all the "dead ends" with explanation).
@@jeffreywitty3088 He could just write his canon by taking the parts he likes from each thing and changing anything he doesn't like.. (like the weakness of Rakshasas lol)
@@jeffreywitty3088 That was basically done for 2nd ed books. Each of the main races, classes, special/reclusive races... if it existed, there was a book for it.
It would be an amazing hundreds of books, i wouldn't care how much there is, the information and statblocks would be amazing!!!
Copyrights.
Treasure Planet, after the... 30th viewing, has inspired me to finally make a spell jammer setting. I’m gonna do it this time.
th-cam.com/video/7obUQeFvyC8/w-d-xo.html
How did it go?
Did you do it?
@@Anisozygoptera the game is starting next week.
@@Geeko170 Best of luck! That's awesome!
"Beholder on beholder action"
*cough cough*
Directorren 13 *kinky
That wasn't a sentence I thought I'd hear about race that reproduces without sex.
Beholders Gone Wild
@Cure4Living But how would they do it?
@@Speed001 Something to do with eyestalks and death rays I am sure...
4:45 *Mercane, the name was changed in 3e to prevent confusion with the term “arcane”.
Thank you , I was fucking screaming at my monitor !!!!!
IchimaruGin19877 I was fucking screeching and punching my monitor too (very hard)
Jeff Grubb also uses the term "arcane space" in Spelljammer.
It is also possible that the Mercane are the Planewalking cousins of the Arcane. If WotC brought back Spelljammer for 5e, they might just as easily go down that route.
i'm sure if spelljammer ever gets turned to 5e they gonna be turned into vedalken
Screw 3e or indeed any edition name changes to entire races.
Any lore you can cover on this topic is appreciated
Reminds me of one of my favorate characters,She built her spell jammer on an animated Blue dragon Skeleton , There was never a more feared pirate on the sea of stars,Good times.
Hell yeah what was her name? Was she a necromancer?
@@defensivekobra3873 She was called Istarell,and she was Divinner but she dabled in necromany. She did have a few undead servants,but the most of her crew were Brutish humanoids,and a verry loyal minotaur first officer
named Granse.
@@jamesblack3586 so this was 2e eh? What is your overall review of the second edition rule system?
@@defensivekobra3873 Thats hard to say it did introduce a lot of what was missing in first edition such as proficenies and dedicated spell casters,but every play group i joined in that time seemed to play a hybrid of first and second edition .the one exception being dark sun,if we were playing Dark sun than we were certanily playing second.Only dark sun races and classe using the second DMG ect ect.So if i had to criticise it it was reallyi would say it was to similar to first to distingish its self, If i would praise it i would say it was complete,putting the finishing touches on Gary Gygax great game
@@jamesblack3586 oh i meant like 2nd edition compared to 3.5e or even 5e
"There were nights when the winds of the Etherium, so inviting in their promise of flight and freedom, made one's spirit soar."
There were legends of storms so powerful they opened the hidden gates to the space between the spheres. A single trip through one And Back was immensely profitable and raised even the lowliest Crew member to near nobility.
The Scroll of the Secret Gates. First scroll, page XIX.
Yes please do. Talk about it alll. I want to know all about space dnd
Kinda want a remix of,
"I'm on a boat!"
More in line with,
"I am a boat!"
“Beholder on Beholder action”
Beholders Gone Wild
everyone else be like: oh i have this magical chair that can steer my ship and thats very expensive and only talented casters can use.
...
and then dwarfes be like: I MAKE THINGS MOUNTAIN GO FAST!1!!
Dwarves are the Spelljammer equivalent of Orks from 40k
@@neopolitandotexe comparing dawi to green skins? Now that’s a grudging
One time in my current campaign i modified a spell jammer chair to be used on wagons, thus creating an automobile.
Far more comforting and safe than flying on *Jetblue Airlines,* I assure you.
*Smacks into asteroid at 4,000,000 mph
Ah yes very safe
@@lebanemcarl68 Thanks for the good laugh... But hey, that's the power of imagination for ya!
So could a spelljammer technically be a gundam if it was made to be a humanoid figure?
Jonathan Wells Yes
Actually, I don't believe that's the case as this ship itself is one giant uniform construct and doesn't have independent moving parts. If someone were to design five mini spelljammers that come together to form a giant humanoid that wields a sword, now that would be epic.
Or Zoids...... heck if you thing about it Voltron >.>
Why not just use a big golem?
Idea how to end a campaign for an all Arcane party.
God, I still remember finding a set of the old Spelljammer rules in a goodwill over a decade ago... Still have em to. even been trying to collect the novels.
Yeah, most of the novels are pretty cheap, except the last one, that took me a while to find one that wasn't over $100
Spelljammer has always been a favorite setting of mine that I feel never gets enough coverage, so please go crazy with these.
Likewise. The Cloakmaster cycle was my favorite series when I was a kid. The Maelstroms Eye was my favorite by far. The opening scene where they describe the Rock had child me hooked instantly.
We need spelljammer 5e!
Seba Seba Yeah 5e is lame PCs can’t do anything. Just think about it
Magic item creation: Dm can just say no.
Myrmidons: *ooh the secrets are lost to time.*
Epic magic: no no no silly PCs only bs villains get that.
Spell jamming: nope sorry doesn’t exist
Elvish high magic: *Ooh the secrets are locked away and only the great elvish sages know the secret to high magic.*
Epic boons: Dm can just say no
@@lebanemcarl68 totally forgot epic boons was even in the 5e book, until I rewatched a video about maximizing a single stat.
Kyle Thomas Yeah you can make some pretty OP wizards, And canonically you can become a god if you do enough cool shit for the gods. Although that would pretty much be the end of the campaign.
@@lebanemcarl68 for truth, other comments brought up 'black hole breath weapons' from a spacefaring dragon. If any of your saves are surviving that...
Kyle Thomas It would be better if they had normal gravity breath. They could use it to pull ships in and then mele. Also solar flare breath would be cool.
"and mediocre at best for supporting me at the 25 dollar level" jesus that's rude... oh no the patrons user-name is mediocre at best
I always heard it as "Meaty ogre at best", oh well. My favorite is still Sackbowel.
I’m pretty sure it’s medi-ogre at best ( I wait till to end every video to listen to the patrons)
Last episode: an elite space ship pilot got out of bounds and went to the forgotten realms. With his ship, in space.
This episode: The pilot sees a huge wooden ship sail past his. Wondering how it works while being extremely confused
There’s allot of interesting stuff brought up in this video. Looking forward to learning more about spelljammer.
Please do a video on all the spelljammer races
So glad people are looking into spelljammer again! I was getting tired of explaining it each time I wanted to play it.
love the ships, i kind of want a spell plague video
Dude, i love D%D and i love SF, and you just merged them. Please keep it on. You Rock!
Dude, he didn't do this himself, this has been around for DECADES.
Lonely Shade bruh go make an 18 minute long video about d&d and I’ll take you seriously.
To be clear though, Spelljammer is fantasy space and not science fiction. It takes some inspiration from science fiction sources (some of the SJ races are rebooted from Star Frontiers, for example) but it's all about the typical fantasy classes flying around on an open-decked ship.
I really really like Spelljammer, but if you want something more like science fiction, you might enjoy Starfinder more.
When you showed the Illithid spelljammer, it reminded me of the flying craft showed in the Baldur's Gates 3 teaser.
thats exactly a spelljammer
I've been wanting to learn more about Spelljamer for a while, thank you for the proper tour .
This is extremely useful for me. I eventually plan on bringing one of my parties into space.
Ah, looking forward to the grand-daddy of them all THE Spelljammer!🦑 (ok it was supposed to be a manta ray emoji but as my phone doesn't have one, this cute chuthlu-ish squid would have to do!)
In few words: Gnome ships are made in Java.
more javascript, with new modules imported at every point.
You should do the lore on the airships featured in the Eberron Campaign and the Lyrandar family. It’s quite rich.
Separate topic, but more timely.
God, I need more of this since I'm working to transition my Homebrew campaign into a Spelljammer form at later levels
“Hey, you know? Lizard is cold blooded and need heat from sun in general to do their live right?
How about make them become superman himself with the sun and shit?”
mostly it just makes them smarter actually =P
Yeeees! More spelljammer, more in depth videos, more! Love the channel, it's easely my favorite channel. Thank you MrRhexx for the content!
I'm running a Spelljammer campaign at the moment. Please don't stop producing videos about that setting!
the spelljammer series is my favorite books of all time
Novels? Cloak masters cycle?
Time to bring the spelljammer videos back!
Wait, there’s space in DnD? I must know more!
i.pinimg.com/originals/cd/b1/c6/cdb1c67908a2abc6116ef42425048943.jpg
Every video you've made is so damn good but these space ones caught my interest more than anything.
I'm in love with this and I can't wait to learn more about space in D&D
You are doing a magnificent job on these videos. Please keep doing this as long as you enjoy it and only topics you enjoy covering. The whole point of this realm & existence is for the pleasure and entertainment of yourself and of course other fans. While I, being an old dude, really appreciate what you’re doing here. I have been enthralled (and not magically by a slaver race) with this since I first found it here. Please do what you want and what is pleasant to you so we will have these to look forward to for a long time.
All the best to you and yours!
All of it. Please. Every single vid you can think of. Your content is so amazing, I could t not ask for so much more!!
still have the box set from the 80s, barely used i could never find anyone who was really interesting into this. thanks for the great series on this topic.
You said you felt weird about how vague the video is and it's lack of details. I think it was perfect, much like a film trailer that is made to build hype on the future release. Honestly, I had never thought about or cared about D & D in space before I watched this and now I'm genuinely psyched for the future vids on this subject. It seems like the combination of my two favorite things, fantasy and sci-fi, is exactly what I was missing.
Please do more about the space-faring races how they differ compared to their ground-crew as well as the "unique" races such as the Neogi. BTW, fantastic work so far!
Your content and delivery is fantastic; every new video is a treat. Thank you for the hard work you've put in to being so comprehensive.
Just got this recommended to me 2 years later now that DnD is using the setting! It would be really cool to see an in-depth lore video on some of the locations in wild space or the wild inhabitants
Don't open the door, Mum! I'm in here Spell-Jamming!!!
You have the best lore dumps known across all the planes.
Seriously I love these things, I'm a dm and I think you've upped my game
THEY FINALLY DID IT! THEY MADE SPELLJAMER A REAL THING YOU ARE A TRUE ORACLE 👍
Spelljammer: It's not D&D in space, it's space in D&D.
Really love these videos, I love the long versions too. Really makes my work day better, thank you
I love your videos. I had no idea the D&D Universe was so intricate and vast. Well done.
Yes, please do the video on each race in space and their vessels! Love the videos and would love to hear everything else about this!
I will gladly watch any video that goes in depth on this topic. Your videos are always entertaining and insightful.
I'm glad I've found your channel. Not only do you go into the deeper lore behind topics, but you posted this one at just the right time to need the info for my campaign. It's actually thanks to you that I even have a campaign at all, considering it was you who brought up Karsus' Avatar and the unforeseen consequences of that spell. Thank you for what you do
Binge watching and listening to these videos since I recently found this channel. Thanks to you my dnd games have improved so much with all these lores. Much appreciated and keep it up XD
I am loving your content dude! I'm new here and only been watching your D&D Lore for 3 weeks! I love it and it helps me better understand where to get some inspiration as a DM
just listening to MrRhexx talk about D&D, makes me realize just how little i know about D&D.....
Now I’m imagining the happiest Kenku ever as the captain of a spaceship.
This is one of the coolest settings I have heard of....
Love your videos. I’m a new DM, and I use your videos to actually understand the dnd universe. You organize everything very well by topic, as opposed to the written materials, which are kind of all over the place. And there’s such a crapton of marerial, just looking up a couple of your videos for relevant information is amazingly useful.
I want to see more D&D space stuff. I am tryung to put together a spacefaring/lovecraftian campaign, and I want as much extra info to work with as possible.
GREAT JOB, you are my fave D&D channel at present, keep it up!
Are the spell videos finally over? Thank god! Spelljammers are cool, this was a good 1.
Spelljammer, it was a very sad day when it was no longer supported. Happy you make the videos.
i love you videos. Never was a fan of D&D but i like books from Faerun, and the worlds are compeling. and the way you talk about D&D make me want to try this system again :)
abandoned Dwarven ships were pretty good adventures; treasures, monsters, etc.
Please do more of these. Magic and science mixed together is one of my favorite things.
THIS SERIES IS AWESOME! Please do follow, and if could be "NEOGI" is such an interesting race!
Definitely intrigued about the differences between the spacefarers and their planet bound cousins!
Spelljammer sounds amazing
Please do all the videos! xD This is really helping my friend start shaping his spelljammer game
Please do more on this series - it’s super cool and inspires me to write my own space fantasy stories!
These are fantastic videos! Please don't stop, delve the depths!
"In long distance travel, the speeds are all the same, regardless of the spelljammer helmet type or the caster."
One exception. Quad of Thay.
@Michael Johnson Implied, although they never outright stated it. The rules for Ultimate Helms are terrible; effectively just magic items with 1-10 extra spell-like special powers and none were related to moving ships :(
"OK, that's IT." *calls over the party* "Guys? Change of plans. You're not going the next city over, you're going to space. Here are a few ship designs, pick one, I'll set it up."
Tim Curry gif
So are you telling me that planes and other airships are just powered by magic?
I knew it
If you're ok with doing more, a lot more, on Spelljammer and space, that would be awesome! So far it has been really interesting! I'm loving it.
I'd like to thank MrRexx for being one of my inspirations for looking into spelljammers so long ago. Without this video, I wouldn't be as excited as I am now that Spelljammer5e is confirmed and releasing soon
Spelljammers has been announced for 5e. No better time for another Spelljammer theme video.
How come this is more informative than the recently released spelljammer book?
Huh, I used the painting on the thumbnail as my wallpaper for years. It was kind of nostalgic seeing it here. :)
Hey man, loving these spelljammer videos. Keep it up! ;)
A little space shanty to look up in a spelljammer campaign: sleeping in the cold below. Have fun

Know your Meme guys.
More...more....MOARRRR...all the knowledge of the universe!
4:50 the perfect squidward race, very rare indeed
Magic chairs... amazing! XD
I love this! Thanks a lot!
really enjoying these videos man, keep em coming
Now that spelljammer is out we need more space content
"Magic doesn't work there, so how do these ships move? Magic!"
Not bad! You must have done a LOT of reading to get this summary and I can't wait to see a more in depth video. It's strange to see all that source material again. Even though I run a Spelljammer campaign it's been a long time since I've looked at my books. I think you've inspired me to go back and read them again :)
14:14 HAH I read Into the Void when it came out man bringing back the memories
Great lore video, I love your work!
The major helm sounds like a good way to bring a dreadnought (the battleship kind, not the astral kind) into the astral plane.
Thanks for the 2 videos. I hope my group will experience Spelljammer one day.
Thank you very much for making these space videos. This high fantasy space travel series is engrossing. I am currently halfway into a 3.5e campaign, and will soon be taking my players into the reaches of space to battle demons of Lovecraftian inspiration. These videos are gearing me up for how to DM space travel, so again; thank you.
