What a world building episode, so many payouts for previous characters and plot elements. Props to Mark for moving away from the RPG style side missions and reframing the missions to be more narrative and character driven. More mass effect, more fallout, less Japanese RPG 2/5 titans slayed.
Ughhh, I got him as well!!! So freaking excited! I don't think $16 shipping is too bad for that amazing limited guy! I heard that, paused the video and bought one! XD
I have spent 2.5 months watching the aerois campaign from the start and i just want to thank you. Mark you are such an amazing DM- this campaign was my first experience with Dnd and i am so glad it was. The amount of happiness this imaginary world gives me is unreal, If i am ever feeling upset for whatever reason, simply remembering that this campaign exists will immediately give me an immense feeling of comfort. I have even had dreams set in aerois, playing out scenarios as if i were there lol. I am genuinely so thankful and words literally cannot explain how happy this little dnd world makes me, so i felt the least i can do is give my thanks. Hopefully i can be there live for the next stream, love you guys
So much set up but i love it. Can’t wait to see the spell clash players we saw back in the day. Like chirpy half dragon boi etc. Always knew spell clash would be what saves the day. If kalus puts his anger towards sport or something it would be very productive
Glad to hear that Nova's idiot brother was head of the resistance. For the longest time, I was afraid he'd be a member of the Cypher Academy and Nova would have to go head to head with him to decide the fate of her people.
I’m not going to lie, I think Tornado being on the side of the empire and having Nova fight him would be a painful scene to witness but it also sounds like such an amazing rp moment. The idea of it reminds me of the ending of the game “A Way Out”
I love how you use the dark lord trope, not as a villain, but as a reasoning for the real villains quest for power. The villain wanting power for powers sake is so overplayed and this plot is so refreshing
Superb and then some. Great world-building and mapping out the next ten or so episodes on a truly epic level. I wonder if Mark has a sneaky ARC of Call of the Netherdeep as he was clearly angling towards the underwater option as the next 'mission.' 😂
Unintentional moments are always the best: "I like this ones plan!" (Aila) "She's smart!" _In the dead centre of the screen Aila with her Intelligence of _*_9!_*
120 episodes in and wish that Mark had a secret Starbane campaign with 5 other PCs. So we can get not only some PvP action but a really good way to get some more lore in. Love the story so far guys. Thank you all. Can't wait to catch up to watch live
Mark, if you're under 43, you're a Millenial too. "Millennials, also known as Generation Y or Gen Y, are the demographic cohort following Generation X and preceding Generation Z. Researchers and popular media use the early 1980s as starting birth years and the mid-1990s to early 2000s as ending birth years, with *the generation typically being defined as people born from 1981 to 1996.* "
Instead of hacking the Tassidar Quil could have messaged Tassidar saying, hey. We want to send some files and info, could you get it to the boss man please?
Someone remind me how long has it been since Sascha offed herself to episode 1 of this campaign? Idk why Kim thinks the genasi would feel alienated if its been thousands upon thousands of years since that event happened. If its been at most just a thousand years or 2, then I'd understand. However, I'm sure Mark had said we are talking like 200,000 at least. You would think with that much time that problem would be fixed with walking cat men, lizardmen, dragons, actually devil guys with people of angel decent watching over them, and even birdmen. Like I refuse to believe that orcs are seen as a more respected race then the genasi since the genasi are more civil and less likely to get the band together and go on raiding sprees. To reiterate, the problem is not the alienating, it's the amount of time it would have been for this to make sense. If it's only been 1 or 2k years since they've been here, then it still makes sense for that to still be a problem.
I think Siaska offed herself 500 years (or at least a few hundred years, I can't remember) prior to the beginning of the story. The dragons and I think tieflings and aasimar arrived not long after Aerois was created, while the other races were native to Aerois, so they've lived on the planet longer than the genasi. The genasi arrived when the Cradle was up, so their arrival is still fresh in their memory.
@@rozu7772 ok then the alienation does make sense. I’m just sitting here thinking after 200,000 years in a fantasy world with all sorts of creatures that can talk and do magical thinks and then a new race of creatures that were once part of a group that wanted to kill your planet is now stuck here that showed up all those years ago to still have that be a problem today is odd.
@@wyattfrye8262 Caste systems are irrational and can persist for many centuries beyond their original rationale/excuse. They become an ingrained habit that just gets passed down. The alienation of the genasi on Aerois seems to me to be a representation of that.
From what I remember, the Genasi arriving was basically a massive accident, and they arrived right on top of where an ancient elven (occupied) city was located. So not only did they break the rules of planar travel, but they also replaced a whole city of people
What are you talking about. Mark is refusing to use the same seven-symbol based coordinate system from Stargate from which he is loaning the idea of annulus shaped gateways for instantaneous interstellar travel.
