The Tritons of 5th Edition are noble and proud, but come across pompous and self-righteous to those ignorant of their struggles on the surface. Will and Brian talk about the complexity of role playing these aquatic fish folk this week on The Dungeoncast!

My friend Ian created a pirate theme rouge that was a human that thinks he’s a disabled triton that can’t breathe underwater, he ironically died from poisonous air

@Aramis75 5 лет назад

It is "rogue", learn to spell.

Triton bard be like: 🎵What can I say except "You're welcome"🎵

@draxthemsklonst 6 лет назад

I too, think of a fireball as an exploding dodgeball.

@Randomdudefromtheinternet 3 года назад

(21:23) Fun fact: Some fish (like bull sharks and salmon) are adapted to switch between saltwater and freshwater, so maybe tritons can do do that too.

@ninalily3217 5 лет назад

I have to admit, I've been asked by my DM to create a triton, as my first character took a crit last session. You guys have been of a lot of help! Helped me get some clarity around a few things, and definitely gave me a very clear picture of my character, thanks :)

@Aster_Risk 6 лет назад

I just started playing recently, and my first character is a Triton. I'm really enjoying it so far. My DM was more than happy to help me look for all the stats and info, since he hasn't really had anyone play a Triton in his campaigns.

@emanuelcamuglia5984 6 лет назад

i love when people talk about races almost no one plays. i like to think of tritons getting really stressed with the concept of climbing and jumping, yeah they use that motion on rocks to accelerate underwater but jumping just lands you on the same place and most of the time you have to keep the balance or you go face first to the floor or having to climb something instead of swimming over it and suddenly being concious of heighs. also underwater fireball would turn into steamball and have at least 4 times the area of effect and a pushing effect.

@ll1ll1ll1ll1ll1ll 6 лет назад

emanuel camuglia I like to think of a triton spell caster that is almost always either flying or levitating but still moves like its swimming

@SixStringedSensei 6 лет назад

New episodes of the Dungeoncast make my evening :D

@theonlymatthew.l 5 лет назад

How does a Triton who lives at the bottom of the sea in a virtually lightless environment not have any type of dark vision? That's a Homebrew revision that's screaming to be made

@mathunit1 5 лет назад

Because Tritons use lanterns and magical light sources. Duh

@hasthehighground8560 4 года назад

Exactly I really don’t like the race it seems very odd so I took some of the stats I liked mainly the +1 Str +1 Con and +1 Cha and I created a Zora race from the Legend of Zelda

@kassidytucker8431 3 года назад

They do

@theonlymatthew.l 3 года назад

@@kassidytucker8431 yes, 3 years later they changed it....

@TheMightyBattleSquid 11 месяцев назад

After hearing that lore, I'm imagining Triton Blood Hunters and it makes me happy.

@maniakal24 6 лет назад

Another great episode. Loving the new intro!

@SingAtTheWall 6 лет назад

Keep up the good work guys!

@flspacebear 6 лет назад

Keep it up guys. You two are gold

@gatorcroc7212 5 лет назад

well there is such thing as underwater volcanos that do burn underwater, its like super hot boiled water that melts flesh! But also for DND theres different type of fire magics! Elemental, Hell, Phoneix, and Solar. I think Hell / Solar would be fine underwater.

@khazbaruk5996 6 дней назад

17:29 ooooh whats that pistol shrimp thing called, is it a pistol shrimp lol or it was the mantis shrimp? One of them clamps their little claw so fast it creates a (I'm like 25% sure on this) a cavitation bubble? And it's like super hot or something, like fireball hot. Run wild with this.

@paulh3892 4 года назад

Great lore episode, Will and Brian! For DM’s or players who want to go the extra mile, gargle water while you talk when speaking as your Triton. You guys inspired one of our favorite NPC’s (and my character when I get to play: Sir Gillyman!)

@wh3nderson95 2 года назад

In my version of the Sword Coast, I stole the idea of the Brine Kingdom from the Aquaman movie. Where they are a species of sentient crab men. Where they possess long thought dead knowledge and essentially horde information. While at the same time, manage to keep some aquatic creatures in check. That was until the Triton expedition arrived in Faerun. Feeling like there is an invasion, the Brine Kingdom declared war on the Tritons as it was a misunderstanding between the races. I had a small mini-campaign of adventurers figuring out it was a Kraken cult that has been operating false flag attacks between the Brine and Triton when both sides attempted to trade with the surface dwellers. That was how things were until I had a player that wanted to play a Simic Hybrid. So I had to add more lore that there is a settlement that is conducting research on aquatic infusion magic by a mage organization. A player decided to be a 'volunteer' to get aquatic features. So that means I had to include more Triton and Brine lore. Overall, I liked the Tritons because the ocean is an intimidating and harsh enough place.

Thank you for quoting Talladega Nights!

I can't wait for the Asmo video.

@philiphamel8504 6 лет назад

If anyone ever needs to use the Point buy system, and want to min-max a paladin, go with a triton and get those plus 1 to STR, CON, & CHA

@citadelone2629 4 года назад

In older editions, fireball was described as a small red bead that launches through the air and explodes on impact.

@gerbendekker3273 Год назад

Delayed Fireball still keys off that description I believe.

@kassidytucker8431 3 года назад

I have a Triton character named rina who's a bard and I made her not knowing much about Triton culture because we couldn't find much so I used the excuse that because rinas mom was human and her dad left that she doesn't really know much about her Triton culture and she was raised mostly on land in a circus with her mom her mom's a human and taught her to sing and she has a step dad who is a dragonborn who taught her how to fight so I call her my BARDbarian

@ky0ta347 5 лет назад

I wanna make a triton druid that lost their memory

@tyrellhayward95 5 лет назад

I like the boiling water ball idea A LOT

@thorkveld 6 лет назад

Ohhh shiny new intro.. I likes..

@gerbendekker3273 Год назад

I'm wondering where the tail comes from that's mentioned in 1:19. I've read the AD&D 2e's books Monster Mythology and Sea of Fallen Stars, and they didn't have tails in those books either.

@SHOTRED555 6 лет назад

Nice intro guys

@BryantVonMiller 5 лет назад

Ah crap. I forgot about these beings and all other ocean dwelling beings in my world setting. Oh boy.. Well here comes another three months of homebrewing more and more societies and peoples.

@SixStringedSensei 6 лет назад

Hey @The Dungeoncast, will you guys be doing an episode on Yuan-Ti purebloods as a playable race?

@Thedungeoncast 6 лет назад

The Yuan-ti will be getting a Monster Mythos episode and we will cover the playable race stats too :)

@drragoon83 6 лет назад

Fireballs description specifically states that it starts as a bead in your hand and then you throw it. in other news, I'm starting to write up a island based campaign setting for my next campaign world.

@zackbop9045 5 лет назад

How did this campaign go

@lntnchrs1 6 лет назад

love the show guys. when are we gonna get more dragon lore?

@Thedungeoncast 6 лет назад

Not too sure right now. We have a lot of stuff in the works. Hopefully sometime this summer though.

@lntnchrs1 6 лет назад

awesome. keep up the great work.

@maschienle328 5 лет назад

Can I create a half triton?

@Zack_Taylor 4 года назад

Not RAW. Ask your dm to reflavour a half elf with the aquatic variant (I think the variant half elves are in xanathars?) Drop fey ancestry and dark vision pick up emissary of the sea and guardian of the depths instead. Do not take control air and water, you are only half triton, not full. Pick strength and con (you already get +2 cha from half elf) should be balanced.

@mileslugo6430 6 лет назад

You know, I just thought of something. I know it's kind of obvious, but I think you completely left out humans in your race videos. Are humans in d&d just not that interesting?

@Thedungeoncast 6 лет назад

We will be doing a humans episode. They are one of my favorite d&d races!
