    I was just reading the Theros book. The reason to use a bronze dragon stats but say it’s a blue dragon is because there are only red and blue dragons in Theros. In the early part of the monster section, there’s a blurb about Dragons explaining in what way they exist within Theros.

  • @ashleymichaelalawson903

    Editor here. As people have noted, Theros only has blue and red dragons. But blue dragons don't have the Amphibious trait or a swim speed and storm giants can't fly, so the bronze dragon stat block (retaining the blue's lightning affinity) felt a better fit for a titanic encounter between them at a shipwreck (i.e. probably involving underwater combat).

      The red/blue dragon thing is on me, I just didn't know. My bad

      Don't worry about it, it was a valid question and it does look a bit odd when you're reading it.

    The dragon colour is a theros lore thing, you can find it in the dragon section of the book

    I have been thinking really strongly about buying Theros. I am against Wizards trying to cross pollinate their Magic stuff into DND but unlike Ravnica this looks like it really adds something unique to the game.

    First?
    Edit: Just skimmed through this video (cos I generally don't buy from DM's Guild often) but I can say, very happy with the level of detail this encounters seem to have. They provide enough detail to understand the story behind each encounter but provide space to individualise the encounter to each campaign.
    Definitely, something I'll put on my radar.

    As someone who's only watched your review and information videos and your entire straight faced delivery and relatively neutral tone. To see you laughing was..... really weird but... oddly pleasant

    i picked this product up about a week ago after debating its purchase. Its great content! A great mix of of simple encounter and larger lore based adventures, many with multiple means of running them. overall a great buy, but i wish they had included the Underworld among the encounter environments seeing as its such a major area of play they built up in MOoT.

    Fyi - jelly rubber chair wheel replacements - standard attachment, larger size, better rolling & less likely to damage the floor.

  • @AzraelThanatos
    @AzraelThanatos 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    For the dragon being a blue dragon with the bronze dragon stat block, a lot of it is due to it being a MtG setting first rather than starting with the basic D&D stuff

    Why do you always read the text? As public speaker, that is normally not recommended...
