I'm coming back to this first video and, again, must say that i'm very thankful to enjoy your content, its lenght and depth and the passion for dnd inherent in it. Awesome Work and please keep going!
Thank you so much for the timestamps. Would you be able to do any for the old videos? I get that it's a lot of work, but being able to find specific topics is really handy whenever a campaign idea strikes me
Over 4 decades worth of world building should count for something. If you grew up with this you'll understand. Thanks for your upload brother. It's difficult when you come across the changes in lore over the years too. Sometimes you have to go what's there last. When in doubt, go with what makes sense. I've had to plug holes in the lore when using some of this in my campaigns.
Nothing surpasses @Lorepedia for an entertaining engaging deep dive into the lore. Thank you Lorepedia. Keep up the great work! Post Script: I don’t love the new cartoony art as much as the deeper more complete art.
Thanks, I'll see if I can make the art a bit more realistic. Not really that much good levistus art out there tbh, and I had a real hard time getting him in that darn cube. -_-
Errtu is and was not a Demon Lord, this is actually an important distinction in the Forgotten realms setting. He is a Balor and (despite his appearances in the books) noted as being a strong Balor. However, he is not a Demon Lord and nearly eery Demon Lord would shred Errtu.
Thanks so much, I'm glad you like them! I think the algo likes the longer videos, I got a lot more traction with my first 2 hour video, so I stuck with that format since.
@Lorepaedia yeah I keep hearing shorts and 20min is the way to go but I disagree...the long form ones ate what I look for! I've been learning forget realms lore for a couple decades and I didn't think there was much I didn't know until now.
@@Lorepaediayes there is an audience for this. It's a lot of work but we appreciate this form. I might now get it all in 1 sitting but I will listen to all of it. I grew up playing campaigns in Faerun so I will get to it.
This just gave me an idea for something you can do while in the 9 hells. Use shape water to solidfy some of the Styxian water...then use catapult to throw it at a bad guy.
@@jacobfreeman5444 that would be subjective. Any fiends would likely be evil, but as soon as their INT hits 0 they don't have the capacity for evil anymore.
Asmodeus didn't make the contract deal, it was bealzabub. It's cool tho. Asmo took care of it and no one knows where he is now. Aj picket as a little more but your voice, pace and knowledge is def top tier with him.
5:17 - Er... why does the skeleton in the image have too many forearm and lumbar bones, not to mention a seriously messed-up tangle of ribs where its sternum should be? 🤨 I was honestly expecting its skull to reveal it's a dragonborn or whatever.
This will be very useful in my campaigns. Do I understand correctly Bel retook position as Archduke for a while because one of Sigil factions wished reality to change on his behalf?
According to the sources, it isn't entirely clear when or why the takeover happened. "At some point, Bel managed to defeat Zariel and take her place as Archduke of Avernus." He allegedly learned how to imprison a powerful being like her through some kind of deal with the tanar'ri. He expected problems from Asmodeus but Asmo said he was fine with it as long as he did the job.
