A good way to look at Shar and Selune's relationship is that they both said "my way or the highway" at the same time. But neither of them wanted to go the highway themselves, they wanted the other to go the highway route, they wanted their way. So they tried to kill each other.
My Divination wizard is a fanatic of Beshaba, Mistress of Misfortune. She basically tries to bring misfortune upon others to avoid Beshaba actually noticing her. The attention of the Goddess of bad luck is not something you actually want, so her worship is basically trying NOT to be noticed by your god. It’s super interesting and really fun to play. I’d love to see you guys cover Beshaba and Tymora. These two are critically under appreciated and i’d love to hear how Brain has worked them into his games 😊 Keep it coming ya’ll!
Everyone's pronunciation is valid to themselves, I'm not gonna hate. I, personally, use "say-loon" and was very disappointed when basically no one in BG3 said it the way I do lol.
So, I'm not 100% certain its fully intentional, it would probably take a deep dive documenting who says what etc, but quite a few of the IP-specific names in BG3 are pronounced more than one way bu different characters, and it made me think they were trying to imply regionalisms involved. Which, if true, is some subtle and amazing worldbuilding that also encompasses how people IRL may pronounce these made up words different ways.
I’m going to date myself here, but Tobin’s Spirit Guide is a reference to the original Ghostbusters movie. It’s only mentioned once or twice in the movie
My second character just died in our Icewind Dale campaign and now I'm playing a Level 3 Shifter, 2 Paladin, 1 Hexblade Warlock (Crystal Dragon Shard Patron) who's a follower of Selune. So the fact that you guys literally put this video out right when I needed to learn more about Selune is fucking great! This is a fun and informational video. 😆💖💯
*It blows my mind that a fantasy world like Dungeons & Dragons, Baldurs Gate and any other video game or tabletop game takes place in the DnD world is so intricate & makes the world feel like a real world... Especially Baldurs Gate games since the choices you make heavily affect the story of the games... The authors that made DnD's world is genius for sure... or course the community, I'm sure, has made lots of content and lore as well for DnD's universe.*
Gru. Gru is another character Selune would have a complicated relationship with. On the one hand, he stole the moon. On the other hand, he gave it back kind of.
Selune is awesome, her style and lore are sick. It's funny to hear that you guys clear out the awful comments, I always thought the section here was surprisingly positive lol You guys have been in my sphere for a few years now and your podcast always brings a good vibe, keep it up dudes!
Your guys are dope, I cant even convey properly how damn happy I was to find your channels. Im subbed and look forward to checking out all your videos. God bless you guys and your families.
A meteor must have hit the moon and made a crater. No, actually it was a giga powered dragon laser beam during the ancient dragon times in an attempt to undo an ancient Elvish spell of insane power that 'plagues' Toril to this day. But the dragons missed their target and hit the moon. :) hope that helps.
Obligatory comment to boost analytics: Me being confused for the first 25 minutes of the episode, thinking this video was about Elistraee: "Where are the drizzt comments at?"
4:05 that's because in ancient times dragons shot it with a rail gun, and no, I'm not making it up. Elves performed a high magic ritual, that cursed the dragons to go insane when a specific comet comes around every 100 years, to prevent dragons from building an empire. The dragons tried to shoot the comet down while it was in deep space, but miscalculated and hit the moon instead
Hey guys, just listened to the newest Legendary Weapons pod. On the topic of what to give away, I think a Dungeoncast Merch Bundle would be pretty cool 👌
I have one from Irish mythology, The Faoladh (fwee-lah). They're werewolves, but they're heroic and protectors of lost people, children, and the wounded.
22:18 Midnight, Kelemvor, and Cyric remained the same as they were…which lead to Mystra and Kelemvor ruining the balance of Toril by making everything benefit forces of “good”. The novel “The trial of Cyric the mad” is about the other gods Suing those three xD
“We have a a bunch of new equipment and species….where calling them species instead of races…and there’s a new species builder you can use to build races..” literally died lol 😂 just immediately accidentally contractors self. 100% something I would do lol 😂
Whatever happened to pronouncing all ways so they can't get mad? Well, I'M mad because I like the pronunciation with a hard U, as in "triune" or "immune". Two syllabus, SelUne like Sel-yoon I expect better from you next time 😒
Selune fighting with a wand and sword is sick, but her fighting with a scythe would be even sickle.
I feel she should fight with some kind of moon shaped weapon as well.
Under appreciated comment

Like when Rey and Kylo Ren break the lightsaber in Last Jedi

Shar and Selune are interesting. I can see how Shar felt betrayed and I can see how Selune felt it was necessary to expand life.
Loki season 1 finale
The story of the creation of the Tears of Selûne (the trail of astral bodies behind the moon) is WILD!! Check it out 🙂

I mooned the Moon Maiden.

Yeah regionalism is whack but its supposed to be

Eilistraee? My queen? My love? SHOUTOUT TO EILISTRAEE! CAN'T WAIT FOR HER EPISODE!!!
the tears of selune, the bits and pieces of the moon was caused by something hitting it in ancient times.. I totally forget what it was
This podcast is like Selune: chaotic, but in a good way.
I’m going to date myself here, but Tobin’s Spirit Guide is a reference to the original Ghostbusters movie. It’s only mentioned once or twice in the movie
I always thought that the short rests were meant for smoking vile dankness.
lich dust, not even onve

what's a level 3 shifter? sounds fun!
@@DODUCKA Shifter is the species I'm playing, from the Tome of Foes book. They got some interesting abilities.

Kozah is still around, it's an ancient name for Talos.
Gru. Gru is another character Selune would have a complicated relationship with. On the one hand, he stole the moon. On the other hand, he gave it back kind of.
I've been wondering what chaotic good meant for her. thanks for this!
The day you have a "don't fart in the underdark" shirt, I'll buy two.
Selune is awesome, her style and lore are sick.

Hell yes, my favorite dnd deity! 🤟🌙🤟
Do you guys have any plans to dip into Pathfinder deities?
Yes we want to
Check out Mythkeeper's channel. Probably the best Pathfinder Lore channel on youtube@@Thedungeoncast
Your guys are dope, I cant even convey properly how damn happy I was to find your channels. Im subbed and look forward to checking out all your videos. God bless you guys and your families.
So basically... if you are not with the Moonmaiden, you... can go Shart yourself?
I 100% will admit to commenting on TH-cam early since I listened in podcast form already just cause I like having my comments read 😅

Guess I never realized these come out a week earlier on spotify. 😅
To install spirit guide is a Ghostbusters reference
