"Dvergr" is just Icelandic/Old Norse for "dwarf". As for the dverg/dark elf thing, the mythology doesn't really distinguish between the two. And "Gothi" was a type of pagan priest/leader.
There's way too much preamble and not enough succinct info. I'm six minutes in and haven't heard anything about this setting. I really just wanna know about it, and quickly.
You are watching a very old video. Back then, I had NO idea how to get the right info to people as fast as possible. I'm better at that now, not perfect, but better.
I love your reviews of third party books. Setting books are some of my favorite supplements out there. It is nice to get some opinions on lesser known materials. Your videos inspired me to do more reviews of third party material. Hope you are feeling better, stay safe.
Been working mostly, but my group and I are test-playing Tomb of Beasts II. We had planned to meet for actual table top sessions, but I've had to dive into Roll20 to maintain the quarantine. So far the creatures of TOBII have been awesome.
@@MrTarrasque As a contributor to the Kobold Press Tome of Beasts II kickstarter I and my group were invited to play-test some of the creatures. When the kickstarter was over Kobold Press sent 10 creatures to test. I just got finished testing 3 of them with my group this evening and they are absolutely fantastic. Basically I do a 1 room/environment setup and just drop the players in arena style. We're just testing, so there's not a lot of plot, but I do try to surprise the players if I can. The players rolled up characters of the correct level for the creatures and I run them through to see if the creature feels like he's got the right Challenge Rating for that level characters. So far it's seemed almost perfectly balanced. The players are challenged to the point of real worry, but not TCPs - though one character did die this evening. Probably told you more than you wanted to hear, but it was a blast.
Oooohh, I love me some Nordic paganism and that hardcover looks very lovely! Hope they correct typos and streamline the design/reading. I can only get a PDF through your link, hardcovers are not yet sent out to their kickstarter backers :/ I am more of a hardcover guy :)
@@MrTarrasque gollum for example is basically a stone troll from nordic myth if I remember well. As well as dwarves and elves wich were create in nordic mythos. The Ring is also an important part of those myths.
I think it'd be fun to play a monk in this setting or a wizard, or really anything that doesn't fit. Just be from far lands. Could be interesting depending on the group& DM.
@@MrTarrasque sure, you miss out on making your character fit the setting and all their fun new options. But not fitting into a setting is a good excuse to be an adventurer. Warlocks could also be fun. Especially of you think if them as more magical and less divine clerics.
Well euhm... that’s super sweet of you. I have to admit I have been sicker then this so for me it was just a matter of sweating it off. Hope you are okay
@@MrTarrasque Well I am glad your doing better. I have been very fortunate to be able to work from home. so I have avoided any sickness. I also want you to know my oldest son and I love your videos, we even watch ones we have already watched. your energy and excitement is so helpful to others in these times. So thank you for just being you even when your not at 100%
