Having been to Vegas, I can comfirm that it feels like something out of D&D. However, I object to it being decribed as "Wizard Shit." It is clearly the work of the Fae.
The deadbeat patron is taken straight from the anime "Is It Wrong to Pick Up Girls in the Dungeon"... Which is a much better anime than the name implies, you have to believe me.
This happened in a Wild West campaign a few years ago: Me, the GM: you find the place riddled with bullets. The carpet is soaked with a thin, pink substance. The door is blown off its hinges. There are tracks that lead nowhere. Players: * spend the next 3hours IRL trying to understand what happened * GM, exhasperated: "look. The guy faked his death. But he rolled a critical failure in the attempt. The liquid is supposed to be blood. The tracks are supposed to be him being dragged out. He used too much powder to fake the break-in" Players: "Next time, fudge the damn roll"
@@CallytheCalicoCat I get what you're saying and agree, but also the point was that the guy was *bad* at the fakery XD that, or maybe he played too much Danganronpa
Warlock idea: You don't actually know what your Patron is exactly, but they keep asking for the most random of things(usually ingredients) during your travels, they leave you notes as a form of communication. They're actually just the equivalent of a chef for some other higher power, but they needed people in the material plain to source their food from.
Ouuuuuuu I love it!! Add in some mistaken identity -- as in, you were trying to contact Being A, but instead got Being B who's trying to cover for them while keeping it a secret from Being C -- and you've got an excellent running bit about a cryptic chef who is DEFINITELY not who the warlock thinks, but never really does anything dangerous with that lie -- just makes things suuuper awkward whenever there's a chance they could be discovered.
Also makes for some great fetch quests: "Get me a dear, live or dead, I'll open the portal and you'll shove it through" ~~~ "I NEED 600 ORPHANS" "Can I be the one to make them Orphans?" "Certainly, don't even need to be children. Or sentient. If it used to have parents and currently doesn't, shove it through" ~~~ "40 clocks" "...huh" "40. Clocks. Mechanical ones. Not hour glasses. Clocks"
I've got the first half! My Warlock is really smart and really nosy (based off the Seeker Warlock) but he is...kinda dumb sometimes. He made a deal with his patron without knowing exactly what they are. They CLAIM to be a servant of Ioun but he has nothing to go on but their word. He could have made a deal with ANYTHING (and that's a treat for my DM! They can decide my Patron and their goals because I couldn't think of anything lol)
Haha when I first played BG3 my friend said “you’ve not played before so you should pick something easy to use and non-magic like barbarian or fighter” Me seeing that Druids can talk to animals: “Druid it is”
I had the idea for a homebrew Warlock whose patron is Santa, so the magic they can do beyond the more standard stuff is all joyous and toy summoning etc.
I actually did play a warlock of Lady Pertcha (Krampus' wife) who was grouped with some of Santa's workers for a Christmas one shot where we had to stop a Mr G R Inch. Mechnically she was a reskinned genie (water) warlock.
I love the Harem-Warlock concept. I mean, think about this: Every Magical School (ie Evocation, Transmutation, etc) would be represented by one person each. They all want to support their love, so they keep tabs on which one's power (School) the Warlock uses most, which one saved his life the most and so on. Maybe they visit him in his dreams, trying to convince them to use their spells more and so on. And ofc, each of them has a different personality. - And they could do this even with most patrons. Celestials, Archfey, Devil and Demon probably fit the most. However, you could even pick undead/undying, in which your harem consists on the former lovers that died before you, but their love was so strong, that they didn't pass to the next world, and manifest in your powers, so they will never truly die, until you do, so they can move to the afterlife (or next life) with you. Hexblade could have been them arguing about who would be the best partner for you, and - for whatever reason - they all turned up to be imprisoned in the hexblade.
Warlock idea: Your patron somehow got himself turned into a small bird or squirrel and has no idea how to change back, so now you and your patron have to very awkwardly deflect or explain why the small robin that always follows you around keeps asking for the skulls of the slain
3:23 that is me. Always. Every time. Even when I create a rogue archetype, I become the group mom. Vampire: The Masquerade one-shot; I made a Malkavian (a Clan that is cursed with madness, almost every member being dangerously unstable), and I still ended up as the group parent x.x It's a curse and I don't know what I did to deserve it.
I now play as a female high elf with a mustache. She got a genetic modification (setting-specific thing) to gain poison resistance, and when I was asked how it physically manifested, I couldn't come up with a spot with anything better. I mean, she has a piece of metal in her face from an older adventure, so it's OK at this point.
here's a funny DND story for you all to enjoy. it is LONG. it is the entire first session of my campaign. so we are at the start of fandelver. we had a druid, a rogue, a warlock, and me, a human fighter who could speak goblin due to LORE. I am at the back of the caravan, the warlock and druid are at the front, the (later retconned from existance) dwarf and human fighter ride off ahead without us like a bunch of dicks. we continue on our way. eventually, we see their dead horses in the middle of the road. me, being the strategic genius I am, immidiately plot a ruse. I tell the warlock to prep their spells and for the rest to be ready. I walk over all nonschalant like: "OH LOOK AT THESE DEAD HORSES IN THE ROAD! I SURE HOPE I DONT GET AMBUSHED!" and then I get ambushed. I draw my sword and immidiately wiff my opening attack, and get pinned to the road by my hand by a goblin scimitar. our warlock misses their shot, our rouge rolls stealth so well they DISSAPEAR FROM EXISTANCE (nat 20), and meanwhile im just faintly begging for help from fifty feet away. the druid casts infestation on the goblin who has me pinned, and my poor human fighter gets traumatized watching thousands of insects and parasites crawl inside the goblin's flesh. this gave him a fear of worms. I then manage to intimidate them all off with a VERY threatening speech despite having lost half my hp from a single attack after the rogue saved me by grabbing one of the unaffected goblins from the treeline and I pull the scimitar out of my hand. I belive I threatened to "BURN THEIR ENTIRE VILLAGE TO ASH AND KILL THEIR FAMILIES! I HAVE DONE IT BEFORE, AND I WILL DO IT AGAIN!" (character lore. will explain if asked.) so the rest ran off. most of my party suggests we kill the goblin, but I suggest we pay them off and tell them to tell their people to not fuck with us in the nicest way possible. we also skin the horses and turn them into sleeping bags. we all rest and recover. walking through the woods follwing the path we are instructed to, the warlock spots a trap and lets us all fall in. I vow to steal from her in her sleep. (her race doesn't sleep.) later we run across a cave mouth unattended. I approach it and yell inside, while everyone else hides. I get ran up on from behind and stabbed in the back by a goblin scimitar. my character attempt to backhand them with his shield, but ends up clumsily spinning in a circle, the gobling dangling from his back still. my character, who i average human intelligence, assumes they are invisible, and goes to dodge roll. this instantly pulverizes the poor goblin into a mangled corpse. it also drives the scimitar further into my back. then, immidiately after, I go and help a nearby goblin who's crying in a bush, and sucessfully convince them to join the party. and that's where the session ends. I didn't pull out the scimitar till the next session, and we had an entire long rest between sessions, so thinking about him just walking around causually with a scimitar lodged in his back going about life was hilarious to me. session 2 and three were a lot more wild as I sucessfully staged a goblin uprising against klarg and created a LITERAL tourist trap. also we exploded wolves. 3 times. edit: (BONUS LORE!:) my character killed his entire goblin hometown after they literally stole his house. no, not peice by peice either. literally the ENTIRE VILLAGE OF GOBLINS barring a few, picked it up from the foundations and carried it into town and dismantled it, and this caused the human fighter to kill most every goblin in the village. now, steve grew up around these goblins because his parents happened to build their house near a goblin town. they got along, his father being a blacksmith and providing weapons for trade. his mom died at birth and his father succumbed to old age. one day, he left his home for work as a guard in a different town, and upon returning home, found a dirt hole where his house was. he went to town to ask about it and saw them dismantiling it. he single handedly massacred most of the village like anakin versus the sand people. he eventually rebuilt his home as best as possible using what he found from the town, and even built a farmhouse out of the remaining burned remnants of the goblin houses. he would farm crabs. ever since then, he's been seeking to make peace with the goblins in a feeble attempt to quell his PTSD and general distrust of goblins. he can speak goblin cause he grew up around them, obviously. this came in very handy. he ends up being the designated main character by complete accident for that entire arc. he has fumbled almost every attempted attack, and is very sucessful at bargaining and speech checks.
*more for those who care: * In the next session, we almost entered the cave only to be confronted by Brock (bard-barian) Running out of the cave from "scary noises". he and steve would become great friends. then, because of plot convinience, a thunderstorm starts and we are forced into the cave. our druid, now high off mushrooms, runs into the cave ahead of everyone and I roll the only nat20 I ever did that campaign. we continue deeper and end up finding wolves. silverleaf tries to feed the wolves. one of them is fed and walks off, but the rest try and attack us. at this moment, the rest of our party, (excluding Ty, who would be missing for several sessions) enters the fight. I try to suplex one of the wolves but I get caught on it's tail, trip, get bit in the hand and lose half my health again. the barbarian explodes two of the wolves (one of which had the druid's parasites) with his axe, and desde does the same with mage hand, but is squeamish around blood, so almost kills me with the mage hand. (thank god.) then we move onward to the trap room. we manage to sneak up on the room, and everyone, except desde, makes it out ok. we then enter the entrance by these traps to find myself in a storage room. I immidiately begin looking for bandages in the boxes, glemico, who had helped brock explode the wolves earlier, cowers in fear, and the rest of the party hides, but not well. I alone turn to face what turned out to be Klarg and one single goblin. I begin to speak, but he rolls a nat 20 on intimidation and turns me into a sniveling useless wreck on the floor. Glemico has the balls to bs a lie as to why we are there and barely suceeds at convincing klarg, who then asks what happens to his wolves. I calmly stand up, and explain the situation that they had attacked us first unreasonably, and we ended up accidentally exploding them. I sincerely apologize. (reminder, I can speak goblin, and glemico is a goblin.) he lets us in, and takes us on a tour. on this tour, he crushes a goblin for not laughing at my mind goblin joke, so I fill up a bucket and now have a bucket of goblin to sell for money to reduce my debt later. (this would be important later.) the other goblins laughs stop as soon as klarg shuts up, and he shows us the prisoner. I ask if I can beat the crap out of him, but he said no because then his friends would kill me. I opt to insult the captured human fighter, and wish him a stew based death. he takes us to our quarters and we rest for the night. I begin to stage an uprising in secret, then I mine several ores and go to bed. the others buy some equipment and just chill and rp. the next day, I try again, and actually gain some goblins who want to join. I talk to one particular goblin, and offer to show him how to fish. partly cause im bored, partly because he looked depressed, and his hunting efforts weren't going so well. I showed him how to spearfish with my longsword. he said he'd consider joining when I asked. I made him a wooden spear for fishing and a note for when we left. on the 3rd day, I gathered every goblin at the square and tried to pursuade them into joining, using the bucket of goblin as proof that klarg did not care for them. I also promise one of the more tratorous ones, who wanted to be the leader, that I would knight him as leader, and officially declare this place a town and mark it on maps, which would bring in tourists. what happens to these tourists is up to them. whether they are killed, robbed, or just scammed. this convinces all but one of them. who is a priest. he runs off to go snitch, so I gather the militia, and brock plays mission impossible on his kazoo while I explain the plan. we set up this plan as such: brock and two goblin spearmen of the 9 we had would stand at the door waiting for it to open. desde preps an arrow with glemico, the druid uses the worms, and I stand with the archers. the goal was to have the goblins stab klarg's legs with spears to bring him down low enough for brock to decapitate him. we set all this up. we are ready. but when the door opens, Klarg doesn't walk through. his wolf does. ripper's eyes get stabbed out by the goblins, the druid uses the worms, and he gets hit by brock's axe and it flies back into the darkness and a wet splat is heard. klarg walks out covered in wolf guts, a single large tapeworm on his forhead. "WHO KILLED MY WOLF!?" he then kills the two goblins and the cleric walks out. desde and glemico shoot their shots and hit clarg, the goblin archers fire their prepped arrows and kill klarg. glemico snd desde kill the cleric with brock's help, and due to a ptsd trip caused by being in a goblin area in combat, I rused and stab klargs corpse while it was still on it's knees. they give me credit for the kill, when in reailty, I should not have been given it. I propose afterwards a feast. specifically, klarg soup, as goblin tradition to eat their old leaders when they die. so we make klarg soup. we enjoy the feast and party, and I give the gifts to the fisherman. he will be a longstanding friend. we then go to interrogate the fighter. I want to mess with him, so we wake him up (or rather, fail to several times) before forcefeeding him klarg soup. he wakes up to that. I wait for him to eat several bowls only half listening to the interrogation before I tell him he's eating klarg. he vomits. unsuprisingly. he pays us for our trouble, and we dip out, leaving behind the caravan after cutting him free, I officially knight the new ruler and the place, and carve a tablet in memory of the goblins who died. next session we have a shopping episode, and ty steals two bags of holding, (one of which was cursed) and I buy a mimic taco. (I did so to distract the shopkeep.) I had the mimic domesticated and it sometimes listened to me. next session, we fought, killed, and ate a giant. that was it. I dealt the finishing blow by cutting it's shins, climbing it's body, then cutting it's nape like it was AOT. it dies. I learn my bag has a demon in it, and I tell it to "shut the hell up and don't eat my stuff or-" and silverleaf would threaten to eat him. I beleived him. then we went on a quest initiated by desde, as I felt bad being the main character by accident. she knew the details. nobody else did. when we got there, it was apparent we were there to negotiate with a banshee. she was nice, mostly to me, if a bit skeptical and threatening. desde calmed her down and the banshee agreed to trade us a silver mirror for her spellbook, which is why we were there. suddenly, the anti-us party busted through the door. oh, and ty was actually here for this quest and the killing of the giant. this anti-party had already stolen the book, and instead of sneaking off, decided to confront us and the banshee. they were the opposite of us, and were built to counter us perfectly. we planned to team up with the banshee to kill them, much to the dm's dismay. sadly, this was were it ended. the DM got grounded from DND forever for not doing dishes once. at least, that's what I was told.
I once made a cambion that was our warlocks patron, my character was in love with the warlock but due to miscommunication had trapped him in a contract and now the warlock hated him, he was tagging along on the adventure to seduce the warlock.... much to the warlocks annoyance 😂😂😂
I can relate to the cleric having to save the dumb party members so hard. For example, in a campaign we’re doing right now, I’m playing a rogue/sorcerer. One of my other party members, his character’s name is Oblivion, is an elf warlock who had his village burned down by a dragon and his best friend stabbed to death by a Dragonborn. Because of this, his character has a fun gimmick where whenever he sees a dragon/dragonborn breathe fire, his character goes berserk, and automatically casts a spell that causes giant dark tentacles to come out of the ground, and strangles everyone in a 30ft radius to death. Now in the beginning, one of our other party members, a brass Dragonborn named Jeff, who, by the way, is FULLY AWARE of Oblivion’s gimmick, decided, for some reason, that it would be funny to breathe fire in Oblivion’s face. Cut three seconds into the future, and everybody (except my character who just booked it out of there) is being strangled to death, so my character has to come back, disguise self into Oblivion’s perished friend, then nat 20 a persuasion check to get Oblivion to calm down and save the whole party from a problem they entirely caused.
i recently played "Hugh Mann Mai'el", a crystal fungus that had consumed and replaced the left eye of a 15 year old witherbloom student named Xander Halvax. the shoro of it was i used custom lineage and the dark gift symbiotic being. xander looked human but his blood was green. he always claimed to be human whenever confronted about his blood. when he accidently created the crystal mushroom and it fused with him, it picked out "im a human male" from his brain and took it as that being xander's name. so in order to blend in, thats the name the fungus used.. though being a "newborn", he didnt know how to spell
I like to run "everyone is X class" one shots. My favorites are everyone is a barbarian and everyone is a rogue. Barbarians raid a city and is just a great meat grinder while the rogue game is puzzles and traps and strategy and shit. My favorite d&d moment happened in one of these sessions when a player used a dog as a weapon and was allowed to add on animal handling as his weapon proficiency mod to slam dunk a pitbull into a paladin. The rest of the party called him mr. Mike the rest of the game!
I did 1 on 1 for each player leading up to my campaign, and when we added one person and a previous player was coming back at the same time I did 2 sessions just for them
Watched a DND game on twitch where chat was a god. Extremely fun because one PC was a warlock. Whose patron was Chat. So he was constantly "hearing" whatever random nonsense we were talking about. Which was sometimes way off topic.
Well the cleric in my campaign tried to hit a Dragonborn on 3 hp down to 1 hp so the heal had full potential, the Dragonborn was a Druid so if they hadn’t wildshaped into a ladybird they would be rolling death saves
2:16 just remembered in the percy jackson saga the Lotus eaters run a Casino in las vegas and trap people in it by distorting time so much there was a dude from 1977 who had (from his personal timeline) entered the casino 2 weeks ago (acording to him) and its roughly 2006 if i remember correctly (also percy and group spent a couple of hours inside and when they came out 5 days had passed) ps none of the people inside aged
the way my dnd group works is that we all go to a school club and multiple campaigns are run at once. we have 8 consitent players (until recently when my friends gf and another friend gave it a go) and 2 incositent players. out of the 10 of us 4 have experience, one of those for likes to act like a murder hobo but does negotiate, another has intentionally stupid but tanky characters that are really funny, another is like the first one but more negotiation and the last of the 4 is your average experienced player. the other 6 of us have a grasp on the game but arent that experienced so all of our parties basically run on luck stupidity and a little bit of skill one time in a party of five we were heading to the capital and me and the experienced murder hobo managed to buy or sneak our way onto carriages. the other three were left to try and hijack one. the one with tanky characters was against this as he was a lawfull good paladin but then the guy onboard said he was part of the royal guard and he got a 19 on insight and knew he lied. he is one of those 'lawfull good paladins' who want good but have batman morality. two brutal murders later and some raiders showed up, the three of them dived into the woods. upon seeing they were raiders the paladin screamed DISHONOURABLE and tried to scare away one of their horses. 12 in game seconds later and he was dead on the floor and our only fighter there had to save him and the third guy cast spare the dead.
In my campaign a goblin was wearing a leather armor across his whole body. Then the paladin casts resurrection spell , so the goblin exploded in to a cow
"A Warlock who establishes a contract with their secretly powerful roommate by making them unfathomably delicious meals" This is just Goku and Vegeta's deal with Beerus and Whis, just without the secret thing. Goku as a Warlock with Whis as his patron... would that work?
hey can you do a session with a character named bilbo swaggens, a hill dwarf cleric(former barbarien) who cant get over his old fight instincts. he ends up attacking with a warhammer. ends up doing like 33 hit points(nat 20 +13 skills) at level 1
I love how clear it was in the ad that he’s dressing slightly feminine, and not ashamed of it but also not making a huge deal out of it. Normalize people (especially men) dressing androgynous casually
I actually lived near Las Vegas for most of my life and my sister was born there, so it ain’t weird to me. But I have had the city of Vas Legas in the Underdark several times, run by a much who steals souls like the Devil from Cuphead because the house always wins my friend.
To whom it may concern: I really cannot reccomend Holzkern. I got a watch some years back as a gift and it broke the first time I was wearing it (during the exciting activity of _sitting in a library_ ). I eventually got a replacement from them, but only after going through several rounds of "no it must have been improper use!" with them. Also - maybe my arms are just shaped weirdly - I have set the armband as tight as possible without inhibiting bloodflow, but the watch still keeps constantly sliding down to the wrist where it prevents the movement of my hand - because it is made of wood and therefore completely inflexible.
I've said it once and I'll say it again: Fantasy High Sophmore Year has a warlock patron who runs a multilevel marketing scheme and extorts their patrons for gold. It does not end well for the warlocks.
So I'm a warlock Bard who is supposed to be the evil party member by ended up becoming the party mom because the cleric is the only person who has played D&D before but he can't be bothered to do anything that is not boxing enemies to death and trying to eat the corpses
Here’s a campaign concept: First, homebrew EVERYTHING. Players tell you what they want, then you institute homebrew that makes what they want VERY difficult to use. Make rulings on the fly that conflict and contradict every core rule of DnD (Oh, you LIKE rolling dice for basic attacks? Naaah, ONLY roll dice for spell attacks or attacks as part of abilities, ALWAYS TAKE 10 FOR BASIC ATTACK ACTION except for Extra Attack, roll both attacks at disadvantage because AcCuRaCy Is RoUgH wHeN aTtAcKiNg So FaSt, so on and so forth). Oh, and force the PCs to ALWAYS be background or side characters to the REAL main characters (all DM PCs), no matter how heroically the PCs play. Oh, and the cherry on top: when players try shenanigans or say “I want to do X, is that okay?” The DM says “Sure, but here’s what ACTUALLY happens….” End result is that everything any PC tries to do gets manipulated into either being of no consequence or detrimental to the story. NO. EXCEPTIONS. That’s just running the campaign. What’s the concept? A GRIMDARK 18+ TOWARTURE FEETAISH FEST (combine kidnapping with shlaverie with gross and trigger warnings violated every 30 minutes) WHERE EVERYONE DIES OR CAN NO LONGER ADVENTURE AT THE END OF EVERY SESSION FOR BS REASONS BUT ALL DEATHS MATTER AND EVERYONE BETRAYS AND BACKSTABS EACH OTHER INCLUDING QUEST GIVERS AND IMPORTANT NPCS EVERYONE HATES THE PARTY AND THE PARTY HATES EVERYONE AND THE PARTY MUAHUAHUAHUAHUA but the planned ending is a band of PCs that hErOiCaLlY crucifies themselves for “righteousness” but it’s a hollow victory because their deaths were meaningless as the 50,000 BBEGs that made this gnarly and narsty-vomit of a universe snicker over the tortured world evaporating into the void, invalidating years of pain and suffering the players endured just to be given the rudest and most disrespectful middle finger up the arse possible. And then the campaign ends with the DM serving a restraining order on the other players for BS and illegal justifications and then slandering their reputation over all social media platforms, even the dead and defunct ones (suing The Internet Archive to manipulate the old MySpace archives as an example). And they fight massive legal battles of defamation and slander for decades until the judges inevitably throw out each and every single painfully-drawn out case, only to appeal for ANOTHER several decades of agonizing court battles and torture. At their grave after dying of old age, it’s just the DM maniacally laughing their guts out at the “poor rubes who just wanted to play DnD”. …. Perhaps I could make this worse… but I’m now scared of how easily that came to my imagination 😱
As a German I find it very interesting how you say "Holzkern" (literally translates to Woodcore) In German you would put a lot more emphasis on the "r" Like ke rrr n. Not trying to be rude I just find it interesting how non Germans say things in German
The cleric one at 3:25 is way to true for me, except I'm the DM instead of a cleric. Almost TPKed my 6-person party with 4 zombies, because they all suck at the game.
I’m sorry but I was halfway through the ad before I realised that there was a cut out on that shirt and not just a white stripe. Also something about your voice makes me not hate it when you do ads. One of the few TH-camrs I actually sit through the ads for.
My barbarian variant human partner has the dumbest luck solos a half dragon at level one through outrageously good luck kills a fucking adult white dragon in three turns at level 8
This reminds me of monstrous regiment by terry prattchet. Whole squad of girls pretending to be boys plus some fanasy races thrown in... And hilarity ensues. Excellent book though.
I was a little disappointed that your ad read was about the jewelry/watches and not the clothing. Don't get me wrong, the tab for Holzkern is open, I'm looking and surprisingly interested. However, I was looking at the clothes and thinking "maybe it's time for another change cause I'd wear most of that". As you say, men's fashion does tend to be pretty boring and I would like to know how "out of the way" I need to go to start changing it up. Yes, I am essentially asking for fashion advice on a TH-cam comment... but you sold to me first so I think it's fair. 😅
I 100% get you, I was in exactly your position a year or two ago - it's hard to find where to start. I started with two things. Firstly, find a few 'statement pieces' things that are a little out of your comfort zone that stand out. I originally used an online store called Incerun (it takes a bit of time to trawl through to find the good stuff). Although jewelry and watches can be statement pieces by themselves. Secondly, mainly because I'm lazy, every time I went to buy anything new I made sure it was in a certain palette so I could make outfits out of everything. You can see how I mostly wear black, burgundy, and navy
@@ZacSpeaksGiant Haha, thankfully the palette aspect I am well and truly acquainted with as that's (mostly) all you have to go on with "general shops" men's fashion. Even the white T-Shirt in your video would be hard to find in those. I'm glad you said "it takes a bit of time to trawl through" as it made me realize that I have often looked away from sites like this because I just assumed they were not my style (mostly due to their presentation). Again, even that white shirt (or this sites close equivalent) is hard to notice as it's presented very differently from how you are wearing it. Regardless, thank you for indulging in what could certainly have just been taken as a weird question. You have certainly given me a nudge in the right direction. Still unsure if I’ll take a punt on the jewelry though, never something I’ve really considered up till now.

When you're right, you're right

It's definitely created and run by a Devil.
Tbh, the warlock with mutiple patrons is basically John Constantine.
Someone actually made John Constantine as a bardlock.
I dig that
The deadbeat patron is taken straight from the anime "Is It Wrong to Pick Up Girls in the Dungeon"...
Which is a much better anime than the name implies, you have to believe me.
@@jonp8015Oh my god, how did I not realize that lmao.
I think I just focused too much on Bell and not enough on his patron, he's way too cute.
It sounds a lot like a visual novel “sucker for love”. Which is an HP lovecraft dating sim where you romance cosmic horrors
This happened in a Wild West campaign a few years ago:
Me, the GM: you find the place riddled with bullets. The carpet is soaked with a thin, pink substance. The door is blown off its hinges. There are tracks that lead nowhere.
Players: * spend the next 3hours IRL trying to understand what happened *
GM, exhasperated: "look. The guy faked his death. But he rolled a critical failure in the attempt. The liquid is supposed to be blood. The tracks are supposed to be him being dragged out. He used too much powder to fake the break-in"
Players: "Next time, fudge the damn roll"
This is hilarious
lol i can see myself being the confused one
If you don't want to go through that, something that will help is saying the liquid is red. More people associate red with blood than pink.
@@CallytheCalicoCat I get what you're saying and agree, but also the point was that the guy was *bad* at the fakery XD that, or maybe he played too much Danganronpa

Add in some mistaken identity -- as in, you were trying to contact Being A, but instead got Being B who's trying to cover for them while keeping it a secret from Being C -- and you've got an excellent running bit about a cryptic chef who is DEFINITELY not who the warlock thinks, but never really does anything dangerous with that lie -- just makes things suuuper awkward whenever there's a chance they could be discovered.
ooooohhh, I've read a creepypasta with a similar concept
Also makes for some great fetch quests:
"Get me a dear, live or dead, I'll open the portal and you'll shove it through"
~~~
"I NEED 600 ORPHANS"
"Can I be the one to make them Orphans?"
"Certainly, don't even need to be children. Or sentient. If it used to have parents and currently doesn't, shove it through"
~~~
"40 clocks"
"...huh"
"40. Clocks. Mechanical ones. Not hour glasses. Clocks"
I've got the first half! My Warlock is really smart and really nosy (based off the Seeker Warlock) but he is...kinda dumb sometimes. He made a deal with his patron without knowing exactly what they are. They CLAIM to be a servant of Ioun but he has nothing to go on but their word. He could have made a deal with ANYTHING (and that's a treat for my DM! They can decide my Patron and their goals because I couldn't think of anything lol)
The last one is so spot on. At session 0, one of the players brought her freind, and we basicly told her shes playing. She picked the druid
Haha when I first played BG3 my friend said “you’ve not played before so you should pick something easy to use and non-magic like barbarian or fighter”
Me seeing that Druids can talk to animals: “Druid it is”
I had the idea for a homebrew Warlock whose patron is Santa, so the magic they can do beyond the more standard stuff is all joyous and toy summoning etc.
I actually did play a warlock of Lady Pertcha (Krampus' wife) who was grouped with some of Santa's workers for a Christmas one shot where we had to stop a Mr G R Inch. Mechnically she was a reskinned genie (water) warlock.
Putting your sponsorship script in your video for everyone to see, is certainly... unique
I know right
I heard it have way then realized it was a sponsor
Look, I got three brain cells and nothing to hide
Timestamp?
@@Devilspadeoff and on through the entire sponsor read 2:20-3:20.
@@GirlPhoenix85 Thank you. I was folding clothes while watching this video so I kind of zone out there in this moment, I guess.
I love the Harem-Warlock concept.
I mean, think about this: Every Magical School (ie Evocation, Transmutation, etc) would be represented by one person each. They all want to support their love, so they keep tabs on which one's power (School) the Warlock uses most, which one saved his life the most and so on. Maybe they visit him in his dreams, trying to convince them to use their spells more and so on.
And ofc, each of them has a different personality. - And they could do this even with most patrons.
Celestials, Archfey, Devil and Demon probably fit the most.
However, you could even pick undead/undying, in which your harem consists on the former lovers that died before you, but their love was so strong, that they didn't pass to the next world, and manifest in your powers, so they will never truly die, until you do, so they can move to the afterlife (or next life) with you.
Hexblade could have been them arguing about who would be the best partner for you, and - for whatever reason - they all turned up to be imprisoned in the hexblade.
This would be fine, except we all know it's gonna be Evocation at the top. One look at Eldritch Blast :D
I enjoy how much you love the Sir Bearrington content
It always gets me
Your delivery of "ya, thats some wizard shit" is so perfect
Warlock idea: Your patron somehow got himself turned into a small bird or squirrel and has no idea how to change back, so now you and your patron have to very awkwardly deflect or explain why the small robin that always follows you around keeps asking for the skulls of the slain
Make it a hummingbird and you got a deal

The warlock concept were they are a herem anime protagonist is interesting and id like to see a campaign play out with that
I now play as a female high elf with a mustache. She got a genetic modification (setting-specific thing) to gain poison resistance, and when I was asked how it physically manifested, I couldn't come up with a spot with anything better. I mean, she has a piece of metal in her face from an older adventure, so it's OK at this point.
As irl Druid anything Druid related is just oh so good. I love it
here's a funny DND story for you all to enjoy. it is LONG. it is the entire first session of my campaign.
so we are at the start of fandelver. we had a druid, a rogue, a warlock, and me, a human fighter who could speak goblin due to LORE. I am at the back of the caravan, the warlock and druid are at the front, the (later retconned from existance) dwarf and human fighter ride off ahead without us like a bunch of dicks. we continue on our way. eventually, we see their dead horses in the middle of the road. me, being the strategic genius I am, immidiately plot a ruse. I tell the warlock to prep their spells and for the rest to be ready. I walk over all nonschalant like: "OH LOOK AT THESE DEAD HORSES IN THE ROAD! I SURE HOPE I DONT GET AMBUSHED!" and then I get ambushed. I draw my sword and immidiately wiff my opening attack, and get pinned to the road by my hand by a goblin scimitar. our warlock misses their shot, our rouge rolls stealth so well they DISSAPEAR FROM EXISTANCE (nat 20), and meanwhile im just faintly begging for help from fifty feet away. the druid casts infestation on the goblin who has me pinned, and my poor human fighter gets traumatized watching thousands of insects and parasites crawl inside the goblin's flesh. this gave him a fear of worms. I then manage to intimidate them all off with a VERY threatening speech despite having lost half my hp from a single attack after the rogue saved me by grabbing one of the unaffected goblins from the treeline and I pull the scimitar out of my hand. I belive I threatened to "BURN THEIR ENTIRE VILLAGE TO ASH AND KILL THEIR FAMILIES! I HAVE DONE IT BEFORE, AND I WILL DO IT AGAIN!" (character lore. will explain if asked.) so the rest ran off. most of my party suggests we kill the goblin, but I suggest we pay them off and tell them to tell their people to not fuck with us in the nicest way possible. we also skin the horses and turn them into sleeping bags. we all rest and recover. walking through the woods follwing the path we are instructed to, the warlock spots a trap and lets us all fall in. I vow to steal from her in her sleep. (her race doesn't sleep.) later we run across a cave mouth unattended. I approach it and yell inside, while everyone else hides. I get ran up on from behind and stabbed in the back by a goblin scimitar. my character attempt to backhand them with his shield, but ends up clumsily spinning in a circle, the gobling dangling from his back still. my character, who i average human intelligence, assumes they are invisible, and goes to dodge roll. this instantly pulverizes the poor goblin into a mangled corpse. it also drives the scimitar further into my back. then, immidiately after, I go and help a nearby goblin who's crying in a bush, and sucessfully convince them to join the party. and that's where the session ends. I didn't pull out the scimitar till the next session, and we had an entire long rest between sessions, so thinking about him just walking around causually with a scimitar lodged in his back going about life was hilarious to me.
session 2 and three were a lot more wild as I sucessfully staged a goblin uprising against klarg and created a LITERAL tourist trap. also we exploded wolves. 3 times.
edit: (BONUS LORE!:) my character killed his entire goblin hometown after they literally stole his house. no, not peice by peice either. literally the ENTIRE VILLAGE OF GOBLINS barring a few, picked it up from the foundations and carried it into town and dismantled it, and this caused the human fighter to kill most every goblin in the village. now, steve grew up around these goblins because his parents happened to build their house near a goblin town. they got along, his father being a blacksmith and providing weapons for trade. his mom died at birth and his father succumbed to old age. one day, he left his home for work as a guard in a different town, and upon returning home, found a dirt hole where his house was. he went to town to ask about it and saw them dismantiling it. he single handedly massacred most of the village like anakin versus the sand people. he eventually rebuilt his home as best as possible using what he found from the town, and even built a farmhouse out of the remaining burned remnants of the goblin houses. he would farm crabs. ever since then, he's been seeking to make peace with the goblins in a feeble attempt to quell his PTSD and general distrust of goblins. he can speak goblin cause he grew up around them, obviously. this came in very handy.
he ends up being the designated main character by complete accident for that entire arc. he has fumbled almost every attempted attack, and is very sucessful at bargaining and speech checks.

@@justafan13 sadly, Campaign got cancelled. upside: I'M A DM NOW. I will however, psot what else did happen.
@@KeyboardTarantula that's a shame, but looking forward to future updates
*more for those who care: *
In the next session, we almost entered the cave only to be confronted by Brock (bard-barian) Running out of the cave from "scary noises". he and steve would become great friends. then, because of plot convinience, a thunderstorm starts and we are forced into the cave. our druid, now high off mushrooms, runs into the cave ahead of everyone and I roll the only nat20 I ever did that campaign. we continue deeper and end up finding wolves. silverleaf tries to feed the wolves. one of them is fed and walks off, but the rest try and attack us. at this moment, the rest of our party, (excluding Ty, who would be missing for several sessions) enters the fight. I try to suplex one of the wolves but I get caught on it's tail, trip, get bit in the hand and lose half my health again. the barbarian explodes two of the wolves (one of which had the druid's parasites) with his axe, and desde does the same with mage hand, but is squeamish around blood, so almost kills me with the mage hand. (thank god.) then we move onward to the trap room. we manage to sneak up on the room, and everyone, except desde, makes it out ok. we then enter the entrance by these traps to find myself in a storage room. I immidiately begin looking for bandages in the boxes, glemico, who had helped brock explode the wolves earlier, cowers in fear, and the rest of the party hides, but not well. I alone turn to face what turned out to be Klarg and one single goblin. I begin to speak, but he rolls a nat 20 on intimidation and turns me into a sniveling useless wreck on the floor. Glemico has the balls to bs a lie as to why we are there and barely suceeds at convincing klarg, who then asks what happens to his wolves. I calmly stand up, and explain the situation that they had attacked us first unreasonably, and we ended up accidentally exploding them. I sincerely apologize. (reminder, I can speak goblin, and glemico is a goblin.) he lets us in, and takes us on a tour. on this tour, he crushes a goblin for not laughing at my mind goblin joke, so I fill up a bucket and now have a bucket of goblin to sell for money to reduce my debt later. (this would be important later.) the other goblins laughs stop as soon as klarg shuts up, and he shows us the prisoner. I ask if I can beat the crap out of him, but he said no because then his friends would kill me. I opt to insult the captured human fighter, and wish him a stew based death.
he takes us to our quarters and we rest for the night. I begin to stage an uprising in secret, then I mine several ores and go to bed. the others buy some equipment and just chill and rp. the next day, I try again, and actually gain some goblins who want to join. I talk to one particular goblin, and offer to show him how to fish. partly cause im bored, partly because he looked depressed, and his hunting efforts weren't going so well. I showed him how to spearfish with my longsword. he said he'd consider joining when I asked. I made him a wooden spear for fishing and a note for when we left. on the 3rd day, I gathered every goblin at the square and tried to pursuade them into joining, using the bucket of goblin as proof that klarg did not care for them. I also promise one of the more tratorous ones, who wanted to be the leader, that I would knight him as leader, and officially declare this place a town and mark it on maps, which would bring in tourists. what happens to these tourists is up to them. whether they are killed, robbed, or just scammed. this convinces all but one of them. who is a priest. he runs off to go snitch, so I gather the militia, and brock plays mission impossible on his kazoo while I explain the plan. we set up this plan as such:
brock and two goblin spearmen of the 9 we had would stand at the door waiting for it to open. desde preps an arrow with glemico, the druid uses the worms, and I stand with the archers. the goal was to have the goblins stab klarg's legs with spears to bring him down low enough for brock to decapitate him.
we set all this up. we are ready. but when the door opens, Klarg doesn't walk through. his wolf does. ripper's eyes get stabbed out by the goblins, the druid uses the worms, and he gets hit by brock's axe and it flies back into the darkness and a wet splat is heard. klarg walks out covered in wolf guts, a single large tapeworm on his forhead. "WHO KILLED MY WOLF!?" he then kills the two goblins and the cleric walks out. desde and glemico shoot their shots and hit clarg, the goblin archers fire their prepped arrows and kill klarg. glemico snd desde kill the cleric with brock's help, and due to a ptsd trip caused by being in a goblin area in combat, I rused and stab klargs corpse while it was still on it's knees. they give me credit for the kill, when in reailty, I should not have been given it.
I propose afterwards a feast. specifically, klarg soup, as goblin tradition to eat their old leaders when they die. so we make klarg soup. we enjoy the feast and party, and I give the gifts to the fisherman. he will be a longstanding friend. we then go to interrogate the fighter. I want to mess with him, so we wake him up (or rather, fail to several times) before forcefeeding him klarg soup. he wakes up to that. I wait for him to eat several bowls only half listening to the interrogation before I tell him he's eating klarg. he vomits. unsuprisingly.
he pays us for our trouble, and we dip out, leaving behind the caravan after cutting him free, I officially knight the new ruler and the place, and carve a tablet in memory of the goblins who died.
next session we have a shopping episode, and ty steals two bags of holding, (one of which was cursed) and I buy a mimic taco. (I did so to distract the shopkeep.) I had the mimic domesticated and it sometimes listened to me.
next session, we fought, killed, and ate a giant. that was it. I dealt the finishing blow by cutting it's shins, climbing it's body, then cutting it's nape like it was AOT. it dies. I learn my bag has a demon in it, and I tell it to "shut the hell up and don't eat my stuff or-" and silverleaf would threaten to eat him. I beleived him.
then we went on a quest initiated by desde, as I felt bad being the main character by accident. she knew the details. nobody else did. when we got there, it was apparent we were there to negotiate with a banshee. she was nice, mostly to me, if a bit skeptical and threatening. desde calmed her down and the banshee agreed to trade us a silver mirror for her spellbook, which is why we were there. suddenly, the anti-us party busted through the door. oh, and ty was actually here for this quest and the killing of the giant. this anti-party had already stolen the book, and instead of sneaking off, decided to confront us and the banshee. they were the opposite of us, and were built to counter us perfectly. we planned to team up with the banshee to kill them, much to the dm's dismay.
sadly, this was were it ended. the DM got grounded from DND forever for not doing dishes once. at least, that's what I was told.
@@justafan13 no need
Can we appreciate that one warlock concept that was just Scientology. Lmao
I thought of a idea for a campaign where the bbeg is in the party the whole campaign so someone is the bbeg
I once made a cambion that was our warlocks patron, my character was in love with the warlock but due to miscommunication had trapped him in a contract and now the warlock hated him, he was tagging along on the adventure to seduce the warlock.... much to the warlocks annoyance 😂😂😂
Does anyone here play idle champion of the forgotten realms?
There is a character called Hew Mann and it is 3 kobolds in a treanchcoat
I can relate to the cleric having to save the dumb party members so hard.
For example, in a campaign we’re doing right now, I’m playing a rogue/sorcerer. One of my other party members, his character’s name is Oblivion, is an elf warlock who had his village burned down by a dragon and his best friend stabbed to death by a Dragonborn. Because of this, his character has a fun gimmick where whenever he sees a dragon/dragonborn breathe fire, his character goes berserk, and automatically casts a spell that causes giant dark tentacles to come out of the ground, and strangles everyone in a 30ft radius to death. Now in the beginning, one of our other party members, a brass Dragonborn named Jeff, who, by the way, is FULLY AWARE of Oblivion’s gimmick, decided, for some reason, that it would be funny to breathe fire in Oblivion’s face. Cut three seconds into the future, and everybody (except my character who just booked it out of there) is being strangled to death, so my character has to come back, disguise self into Oblivion’s perished friend, then nat 20 a persuasion check to get Oblivion to calm down and save the whole party from a problem they entirely caused.
I imagine that all those warlocks are the same warlock.

I read the warlock section(besides the daughter one) as one warlock
i recently played "Hugh Mann Mai'el", a crystal fungus that had consumed and replaced the left eye of a 15 year old witherbloom student named Xander Halvax. the shoro of it was i used custom lineage and the dark gift symbiotic being. xander looked human but his blood was green. he always claimed to be human whenever confronted about his blood. when he accidently created the crystal mushroom and it fused with him, it picked out "im a human male" from his brain and took it as that being xander's name. so in order to blend in, thats the name the fungus used.. though being a "newborn", he didnt know how to spell
The first concept.... Reminds me of the old rpg Paranoia. Lol
I like to run "everyone is X class" one shots. My favorites are everyone is a barbarian and everyone is a rogue. Barbarians raid a city and is just a great meat grinder while the rogue game is puzzles and traps and strategy and shit. My favorite d&d moment happened in one of these sessions when a player used a dog as a weapon and was allowed to add on animal handling as his weapon proficiency mod to slam dunk a pitbull into a paladin. The rest of the party called him mr. Mike the rest of the game!
4:00 the second one sounds fun
2:04 sounds like the Lotus Eaters, wonder if that joke’s been made already? 😂
I did 1 on 1 for each player leading up to my campaign, and when we added one person and a previous player was coming back at the same time I did 2 sessions just for them
Watched a DND game on twitch where chat was a god. Extremely fun because one PC was a warlock. Whose patron was Chat. So he was constantly "hearing" whatever random nonsense we were talking about. Which was sometimes way off topic.

The delicious meals thing for the warlock sounds fun
Want an interesting warlock concept? A Warlock Reborn whose patron is the Raven Queen.
Love the Wii shop music in the background!
Well the cleric in my campaign tried to hit a Dragonborn on 3 hp down to 1 hp so the heal had full potential, the Dragonborn was a Druid so if they hadn’t wildshaped into a ladybird they would be rolling death saves
There is a reason the Lotus-Eaters setup shop in Vegas.

2:16 just remembered in the percy jackson saga the Lotus eaters run a Casino in las vegas and trap people in it by distorting time so much there was a dude from 1977 who had (from his personal timeline) entered the casino 2 weeks ago (acording to him) and its roughly 2006 if i remember correctly (also percy and group spent a couple of hours inside and when they came out 5 days had passed) ps none of the people inside aged
the way my dnd group works is that we all go to a school club and multiple campaigns are run at once. we have 8 consitent players (until recently when my friends gf and another friend gave it a go) and 2 incositent players. out of the 10 of us 4 have experience, one of those for likes to act like a murder hobo but does negotiate, another has intentionally stupid but tanky characters that are really funny, another is like the first one but more negotiation and the last of the 4 is your average experienced player. the other 6 of us have a grasp on the game but arent that experienced so all of our parties basically run on luck stupidity and a little bit of skill
one time in a party of five we were heading to the capital and me and the experienced murder hobo managed to buy or sneak our way onto carriages. the other three were left to try and hijack one. the one with tanky characters was against this as he was a lawfull good paladin but then the guy onboard said he was part of the royal guard and he got a 19 on insight and knew he lied. he is one of those 'lawfull good paladins' who want good but have batman morality. two brutal murders later and some raiders showed up, the three of them dived into the woods. upon seeing they were raiders the paladin screamed DISHONOURABLE and tried to scare away one of their horses. 12 in game seconds later and he was dead on the floor and our only fighter there had to save him and the third guy cast spare the dead.
2:13 i am stealing this description of Vegas
To be honest, I didn't realize when I was listening to the sponsor bit at first. Good play
In my campaign a goblin was wearing a leather armor across his whole body. Then the paladin casts resurrection spell , so the goblin exploded in to a cow
"A Warlock who establishes a contract with their secretly powerful roommate by making them unfathomably delicious meals" This is just Goku and Vegeta's deal with Beerus and Whis, just without the secret thing. Goku as a Warlock with Whis as his patron... would that work?
Makes me miss playing.
hey can you do a session with a character named bilbo swaggens, a hill dwarf cleric(former barbarien) who cant get over his old fight instincts. he ends up attacking with a warhammer. ends up doing like 33 hit points(nat 20 +13 skills) at level 1
basically my firsd d&d session

4:10 That's litterally Yato from Noragami lmao

I actually lived near Las Vegas for most of my life and my sister was born there, so it ain’t weird to me. But I have had the city of Vas Legas in the Underdark several times, run by a much who steals souls like the Devil from Cuphead because the house always wins my friend.
If you think about it... Genocide frisk Undertale is a warlock uncapable of using magic. Also I think Fighter is their main class

To whom it may concern:
I really cannot reccomend Holzkern.
I got a watch some years back as a gift and it broke the first time I was wearing it (during the exciting activity of _sitting in a library_ ). I eventually got a replacement from them, but only after going through several rounds of "no it must have been improper use!" with them.
Also - maybe my arms are just shaped weirdly - I have set the armband as tight as possible without inhibiting bloodflow, but the watch still keeps constantly sliding down to the wrist where it prevents the movement of my hand - because it is made of wood and therefore completely inflexible.
I've said it once and I'll say it again:
Fantasy High Sophmore Year has a warlock patron who runs a multilevel marketing scheme and extorts their patrons for gold. It does not end well for the warlocks.
So I'm a warlock Bard who is supposed to be the evil party member by ended up becoming the party mom because the cleric is the only person who has played D&D before but he can't be bothered to do anything that is not boxing enemies to death and trying to eat the corpses
That sounds like amonkhet
4:40 Wouldn't that be the warlock acting like a bratty teen and not the patron?
Here’s a campaign concept:
First, homebrew EVERYTHING. Players tell you what they want, then you institute homebrew that makes what they want VERY difficult to use. Make rulings on the fly that conflict and contradict every core rule of DnD (Oh, you LIKE rolling dice for basic attacks? Naaah, ONLY roll dice for spell attacks or attacks as part of abilities, ALWAYS TAKE 10 FOR BASIC ATTACK ACTION except for Extra Attack, roll both attacks at disadvantage because AcCuRaCy Is RoUgH wHeN aTtAcKiNg So FaSt, so on and so forth). Oh, and force the PCs to ALWAYS be background or side characters to the REAL main characters (all DM PCs), no matter how heroically the PCs play. Oh, and the cherry on top: when players try shenanigans or say “I want to do X, is that okay?” The DM says “Sure, but here’s what ACTUALLY happens….” End result is that everything any PC tries to do gets manipulated into either being of no consequence or detrimental to the story. NO. EXCEPTIONS.
That’s just running the campaign. What’s the concept? A GRIMDARK 18+ TOWARTURE FEETAISH FEST (combine kidnapping with shlaverie with gross and trigger warnings violated every 30 minutes) WHERE EVERYONE DIES OR CAN NO LONGER ADVENTURE AT THE END OF EVERY SESSION FOR BS REASONS BUT ALL DEATHS MATTER AND EVERYONE BETRAYS AND BACKSTABS EACH OTHER INCLUDING QUEST GIVERS AND IMPORTANT NPCS EVERYONE HATES THE PARTY AND THE PARTY HATES EVERYONE AND THE PARTY MUAHUAHUAHUAHUA but the planned ending is a band of PCs that hErOiCaLlY crucifies themselves for “righteousness” but it’s a hollow victory because their deaths were meaningless as the 50,000 BBEGs that made this gnarly and narsty-vomit of a universe snicker over the tortured world evaporating into the void, invalidating years of pain and suffering the players endured just to be given the rudest and most disrespectful middle finger up the arse possible.
And then the campaign ends with the DM serving a restraining order on the other players for BS and illegal justifications and then slandering their reputation over all social media platforms, even the dead and defunct ones (suing The Internet Archive to manipulate the old MySpace archives as an example). And they fight massive legal battles of defamation and slander for decades until the judges inevitably throw out each and every single painfully-drawn out case, only to appeal for ANOTHER several decades of agonizing court battles and torture. At their grave after dying of old age, it’s just the DM maniacally laughing their guts out at the “poor rubes who just wanted to play DnD”.
….
Perhaps I could make this worse… but I’m now scared of how easily that came to my imagination 😱
So this is what they mean by "running a Chaotic Evil campaign"

As you say, men's fashion does tend to be pretty boring and I would like to know how "out of the way" I need to go to start changing it up.
Yes, I am essentially asking for fashion advice on a TH-cam comment... but you sold to me first so I think it's fair. 😅
I 100% get you, I was in exactly your position a year or two ago - it's hard to find where to start.
I started with two things.
Firstly, find a few 'statement pieces' things that are a little out of your comfort zone that stand out. I originally used an online store called Incerun (it takes a bit of time to trawl through to find the good stuff). Although jewelry and watches can be statement pieces by themselves.
Secondly, mainly because I'm lazy, every time I went to buy anything new I made sure it was in a certain palette so I could make outfits out of everything. You can see how I mostly wear black, burgundy, and navy
@@ZacSpeaksGiant Haha, thankfully the palette aspect I am well and truly acquainted with as that's (mostly) all you have to go on with "general shops" men's fashion. Even the white T-Shirt in your video would be hard to find in those.
I'm glad you said "it takes a bit of time to trawl through" as it made me realize that I have often looked away from sites like this because I just assumed they were not my style (mostly due to their presentation). Again, even that white shirt (or this sites close equivalent) is hard to notice as it's presented very differently from how you are wearing it.
Regardless, thank you for indulging in what could certainly have just been taken as a weird question. You have certainly given me a nudge in the right direction. Still unsure if I’ll take a punt on the jewelry though, never something I’ve really considered up till now.
