Don't really expect a response on a two year old video, but thought you should know that this video isn't in the Shadowrun playlist for some reason. Love the content!
you probably dont care at all but does anyone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot the login password. I appreciate any help you can give me
@Easton Colten Instablaster :)
3 years later and still no metropolae video I agree with the top comment please make shadowrun seres
I like Dragons in Shadowrun. Their “power behind the power” thing can make for interesting plot twists. My crew did a run to steal an artifact from a Fourth World ruin in Salish, Indiana Jones style. We suspected we were hired by Tairngir, but it turned out our employer was Hestaby herself and she wanted to keep the artifact *away* from Tairngir because it had some kind of effect on the Astral Plane.
Do a full series on Shadowrun Lore Please. as I don't think anyone else has ever done this kind of thing in youtube.
From my understanding the egg theft thing is a lot more significant than just kidnapping. Dragon type isn't determined by genealogy but rather by where the egg hatches and who does the hatching. There's only one Great Sea Dragon and Rhonabwy is contributing to that even if/when they hatch under his care.
Dunkelzahn s name is older than the modern world. He was around in Barsave (Earth Dawn)--> wichs is basically modern Ukraine. That was around 10.000 BC. At that time Dunkelzahn was the name he used when disguising as the human servant of himself "the Dragon". Actually, the dragons were quite pissed that Dunkelzahn revealed to the world that dragons can change into Humans basically for a PR stunt.
I love these shadowrun videos. For such a popular game, it's weird how there isn't a big shadowrun lore channel yet.
"and somehow they don't control the world" YES! thats where I went different with my setting. They absolutely rule the world :D
So basically the reason hyper-intelligent and super powerful sapient dragons don't rule any world their part of can fall under some mix of these categories:
1. They are not all on the same page and have varied interests and goals that sometimes run counter to each other and thus these powerful creatures create a bit of a counter-balance to one another. If one starts getting to powerful and influential, he'll find his rivals have started banding together to keep him in check.
2. They simply don't care to run the world - outside of maybe having a small holding, their concerns extend well beyond the confines of the mortal world. Running the world would just be taking time and attention away from the things that they really do care about. The dragons' minds are completely other to us, so they don't necessarily care about the things that we might if we had their power.
3. They DO run the world (or large portions of it), but just not in a heavy-handed sort of way. Instead they just appoint lieutenants and form hierarchies that take care of the day-to-day things that frees them up from the minutia of it all and really only ever get involved when something critically needs their direct attention. Otherwise most people simply may never even realize that everything has a dragon somewhere pulling the strings.
Seems that SR kind of has a healthy mix of these three approaches.
I'm considering having sapient dragons of a sort in my fantasy/diesel punk setting. My world's version of trolls would be a sub-species of dragon which were forced to evolve in another direction after they got stuck underground for millennia.
That might be an interesting take on things. Trolls tend to vary wildly in different settings.
Idk if it was intentional or not but I'd say that works, considering Troll used to be a catch-all term for supernatural threats,
As far as I remember... you forgot Schneeflöckchen, the western great dragon, that showed up once, restet on the UNO building and then went back into hiding in the alpine region somewhere ? ^^'
The runners credo - Watch your back, shoot straight, conserve ammo, and NEVER, EVER, CUT A DEAL WITH A DRAGON
Ah yes, I always loved the shadowrun dragons~ I agree that that's probably how dragons would act in real life, I also fully agree that Dragonfall is a great game
Remember to drink water ❤️
The English Pepe willllldo
never
Never deal with a dragon chummer!
I do like the way you become a great dragon is just saying you are and being strong enough that no one can call you out on it
Used to have a Vote For Dunkelzahn! poster hanging on my wall well over a decade ago.
Man, I felt that comment about nobody knowing about the sea dragons/leviathans. I've played since the late 80's on first edition and I had no idea.
Also, I had a giggle at "Showsa" people, guessing you meant Xhosa. Then again, knowing how it's pronounced, that's about the best a non native speaker can hope for. Love the videos and the trips down memory lane.
I like your idea of dragons, I always pictured them almost Lovecraft esk. With motives we cannot understand
Celedyr: "Why be the king when you could be the court wizard."
Yes more lore
Hey!! I’m a brand new Runner and just want to say thanks for these great videos!! They’re helping me so much!! 🥳
Ironically, Loefwyr isn't actually the dragon on the logo of his megacorp. He changed it to honor Dunkelzahn after he was killed.
That has to be THE most interesting way I've ever heard someone pronounce Xhosa in my life - quite entertaining.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but it's implied that Sirrug destroyed that plane in retaliation of The Night of Rage.
OR he wanted to kill a group of Importal Elf dragon hunters.
Aaaand subbed. This was bloody brilliant, fun to watch and listen to and overall just awesome. Well done !
Thank you man for these videos! I just got the Shadowrun games' saga and this is being super useful to understand the lore before playing.
I really enjoy your SR-lore videos!
As a suggestion, maybe some stuff on the MMVV-Virus and some tips on how to RP them properly?
Keep it up mate!
The Great Leviathan stays awake during the down cycle of magic & is sometimes entrusted to watch over dragon eggs
I appreciate your lore videos.
Love all the shadowrun vids. I have watched them so many times
Haven't played this in so long, I used to love just reading the lore books. they're so in depth and detailed, well written and researched.
So i'm reading the shadow run 6th world, Neo-anarchist Streetpedia, and I reach Celdyr's entry. Thee first line. The very first line, "Celdyr is a Nerd" . Drakes got a reputation.
11:33 yes, I am interesting, thank you for noticing.
Thanks for the concise and funny videos. I also dig the pronunciations.
Except Xhosa - the Xh is a click sound, so it would be more like "kosa" (no idea how else to write a click sound, Xhosa is extremely phonetic so most of the spelt words only barely resemble how they sound).
Late to the party but i'm really enjoying your really informative yet compact lore videos!
Also, as native German speaker, i highly appreciate it that you know German and are weren't butchering Names and Phrases 😅
Cool Vid! Gonna send that shit around my SR group.
We are currently being used by Ryumyo against Lung so this is helpful.
as for sirrurg , I think he took out the plane just to get at that magic user, no reason why, but that mage was powreful, like if you can hold off a great dragon for hours, holy shit, you are a power mage. Sirrurg did not start a war with Aztlan , Aztlan invaded Amazonia. Sirrurg was a beast and terror of Aztlan however he was taken down by Aztlan military forces but was saved and imprisoned by the dragon council.
In the wake of the events depicted in "Cutting Black" and "Slip Streams," Sea Dragon needs an update. She now owns the newly free cities of St. Louis and SEATTLE? MMMkay, Catalyst.
More of this please
A small correction on Hestaby:
She got exiled for her crimes against the draconic ways in the dragon civil war 2074 and lost her hort and all her belongings.
To my knowledge nobody really knows what the orange queen is doing right know or where she is, but she is probably working on restoring her wealth and power.
She had a large part in Survival of the Fittest. All the trouble for nothing?
"Celedyr is a nerd" took me OUT
The Sea Dragon technically has a name, it's just "not pronouncable by humans."
Subbed for shadowrun lore ❤
Well one thing on Feathered Serpent i'd say quite a few actually oppose Aztechnology, they are more aligned with Amazonia.
Also Celedyr is no longer with NeoNet... well actually Neonet is no longer a thing
Snd i think Sirrurg is dead too now
Fuck yes Shadowrun lore videos, Shadowrun is how I even found the channel
I fucking LOVE shadowrun lore, pls more you kind german man
I love that you wear a dp podcast shirt in this video.
Totally agree with the smart dragon thing.
i fucking love these dragons
i stan unamed sea ecoterrorist catlady
IIRC Lofwyr is also the Main Antagonist the the SNES shadowrun Game.
I want an hd shadowrun openworld game T_T such a cool world. I can't believe I only heard about it recently.
Re-read the Dragon Heart Saga right now - Dunkelzahn, Quicksilver, great stuff
In fairness In dnd they gave up on ruling the world because they nearly got wiped out by magic so they decided that Empire wasn't for them and split up to do their own individual things.
Well this vid made me go track down a copy of the Clutch of Dragons Shadowrun sourcebook. I suppose I'm due for another playthrough the of games as well.
So you like dragons when they’re xenomorphs. Hyper intelligent predators lol.
You're hella dope for the Gamecube 👍🏾
I have the same opinion about dragons as you, To me dragons are about strength, not necessarily power. strength includes weaknesses, power does not
The Seadragon git a mahor upgrade plotwise in the lasz few years.
Schwarzkopf looks like the same spelling as the American general who was a major leader in desert storn
I’d definitely read rhonabwy’s blog
Eastern dragons have an organ that allows them to fly..you forgot Haeslich who was killed by Dunklzahn
Damn bro, much respect, your German pronounciation is (for the most part) on point.
Nachtmeister and Frankfurter Bankenverein are really difficutl words for anglophones
Isnt he German?
@@marcoboscarol2420 i assumed he is British, due to his accent
This is why ZSU-57-2 is never going out of fashion.
that trash? really?
Greetings and salutations from small region of Czechia ;)
I love shadow run
7 limbs if you count the tail
hi i just found this chanel and i fucking love it
I think that dragons could be awakened dinosaurs.
11:00 so It's just like real life Elsass
More!
As a Brazilian, I do confirm: we need a dragon president in our country. Like... now, as soon as possible, I don't care, anything's better than what we have here.😂
Dragons don't run the world for the same reason everything else just as powerful doesn't... they're all balancing themselves out and have their territories.
Nice vid, chummer.
Wow, no mention of Big Asparagus in the control conspiracies?
can't bite the hand that feeds me
10:30 burninating the pesants?
We still don't have that metropole video
the feathered serpents are aztec dragons that are good and respect all life not all dragons are evil and even some dragons are your best friends someone who would not judge you harshly and would listen to all the things that trouble you
Didn't know there was a hair product company called Schwartzkopf, but there is also a prolific (defunct) rollercoaster manufacturer called Schwarzkopf, so I share your mild irritation.
DEATH WING FOREVER.
Mt Shasta is in California, my dude.
Fun fact, Chinese dragons traditionally breathe water instead of fire.
I'm either going insane or a bunch of the shadowrun video's thumbnails have been changed
What book was the SNES game based on and how does it differ and have in common.
Wait. Hasn't Neonet fallen from AAA status? I am not too knowledgable about the hot wiz lore of current Shadowrun 5E, I kinda stopped paying attention to lore-development at some point.
Yeah, they are no longer around, Spinrard industry took the place
Mt Shasta is in Cali
This was a great video; thank you! Also, I understand but am still really bothered by people adding "gate" to the end of scandals. I know it's shorthand, but holy fuck does it show a lack of creativity.
Meu DM vai mestrar uma mesa que vai se passar no Brasil, e eu tava procurando onde Hualpa fica por pura curiosidade.
Are you still looking for people for the shadowrun stream?
Unfortunately that will be ending soon.
@@TheBurgerkrieg that sucks, already bought the book and had character concepts
20:55 you don't have schwartzkopf in America ???
insect spirits are way more scary then dragons they come from another realm a bug planet
Sooo, where is the mentioned metropole video?
the future hopefully lol
Yo where is that metropole video
Wait! If the dragons are thousands of years old where were they before 2012??
Mount Shasta is in northern California... not Oregon...
some reason, I really wish the zork universe could've been recycled or even myst. so much potential... such poor utilization destroyed by developers.
Dragon stock traders
I can't tell if you're 28 or 38
I'm 23.
Don't show this to Lozi
Woof, 24 minutes; long video
So, Aden is Trump? xD
