thank you for the subtitles!

of course! though if you check the description, we have a link to our article on the Raven Queen which is just the video but in text form, the only thing it doesn't have is my beautiful voice (lol) and as many images (but we have way more deep dives on our blog that are slowly being added to RU-vid!)

@Tusitala1967 Год назад

Very cool. I've written a different origin for my own game, but this lore dump will help me fill in the details.

@lidlonez Год назад

Very informative thanks :D I have a warlock in my game who follows her

@DumpStat Год назад

Pretty sure every warlock has to follow her in some way or another! (Have had three warlocks who all follow her...)

Good video ❤️

I now want to make a vampire go out and make friends with these sad monsters. Build an army of "friends" and set them on his enemy’s when he retturns from the shadowfell.

Is any new reason given in Explorer's Guide to Wildemount for how/why the 5e Raven Queen has the domains of Fate & Winter? I like both origins, though 4th Edition's I like better. However, I am curious about the 5th Edition spin on her gaining Fate & Winter domains.

@DumpStat 6 месяцев назад

Not as far as I know - but the "Raven Queen" in Critical Role was taken from 4th edition, used in Pathfinder, and then brought into 5th edition all inside the homebrew world of Mercer's. It's bound to have picked up weird things here and there and so I don't really hold anything about the gods in Exandria that 'canon'. With that said, Fate may have been taken from Pathfinder's goddess who oversees death, Pharasma, and the winter element could just be Mercer's imagination about what its like in the plane of shadow, that death is cold, or anything else.

The only thing I missed in your video is her connection to the kenku who were once her devine followers (angels) that sacrificed themselves to save the ravenqueen from oblivion.. In the end she was well and thankful but the kenku became the mortal race we know today. (Informations are from the explorers guide to wildemount)

@DumpStat Год назад

We've written about the Kenku and briefly touch on that. It actually originates in 4th edition with Dragon #411 buuuut its kind of so incidental with so little on it that it wasnt really worth mentioning due to length (in addition, we tend to avoid going over campaign setting specific lore but sometimes we break that rule for very interesting tidbits.) dumpstatadventures.com/blog/deep-dive-the-kenku

@erasin8844 2 месяца назад

What exactly is the raven queen ideology? I can find some simple tenets online but it seems as she supports natural death and objects interference to it while still reviving shadar kai for her own means.

We are excited to announce our upcoming Kickstarter focused on tools, kits, & supplies in D&D 5e! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dumpstat/toolcraft-making-tools-useful-for-5e

@allenkeith7160 Год назад

Played 3e, 3.5e, and 5e... Watching this video? I've never heard of the 5e story as presented, and thought the, as presented, 4e story was the 5e version, and is the ONLY version of the Raven Queen backstory that I know... This whole "Elf rising to Godhood" version is very new to me.

@DumpStat Год назад

Probably since we didn't get any info on her in 5e until 2018 with the release of Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes (and even then, it was within the information about the Shadar-kai) So for the first 4 years of 5e, everyone was using 4e lore and the 'lore change' in 2018 didn't really catch on as well

@allenkeith7160 Год назад

@@DumpStat makes sense put that way

@ColinMacInnis 10 месяцев назад

And even those are legacy now so god knows what is and isn’t. I like her 4e origins more

@karldehaut 3 месяца назад

I came across your channel by pure chance (salute to the dark lord of the algorithm). I chose to introduce the Raven Queen into my Greyhawk setting. For what? I’m a nerd about mythologies and religions. Some Greyhawk gods were created with tongue in cheek. (Pholtus and St Cuthbert), but they’re explainable. It’s the behavior of the faithful that amuses. Nerull wasn’t explainable, death considered evil is a modern concept. Utterly evil god of death isn't found in any mythology (if you have found one, please tell me). All death gods have positive domains. We cannot find in all mythologies an evil death god. So Nerull in Greyhawk was irksome. However with the 4th edition of Raven Queen my problem was solved and the gothic Shadar-Kai are cool! A consistent death deity is neutral, feared but neutral. I want to add that freeing souls don’t infer that they’re eaten or destroyed…

@DumpStat 3 месяца назад

I believe in 4e, it is referenced that souls are destroyed when used as power (why some deities were very against it). But also, in 2e's placescape - souls would be "absorbed" when a petitioner became filly aligned with the plane and, while no one really knew what happened, it was theorized that the soul became part of the plane and its energy. Perhaps thats the same thing as being freed as well, but you are forcing souls to be matched into alignment of the diety or plane

@soldierbreed Год назад

Definitely think the 5e origin is better

@Zuppx Год назад

Should split video of 5e and 4e since its so different. Wanted more 5e info so quite bad video for me.

@DumpStat Год назад

All of our Deep Dives are a cumulative presentation of all the editions. Unfortunately, there isn't much official content on the Raven Queen in the 5th edition. We try to find every piece of information we can on the subject, so if you find anything we missed please let us know!
