This was really well done! I love the classic Van Richten books a lot of good ideas that can work in any edition or setting. Like the psionic lich.

Thanks so much!

Love the quoting 2nd Ed Van Richtens Guide

@KS-PNW Месяц назад

Seriously the 2e Guides were absolutely amazing! So many cool ideas that really made you realize how terrifying a lich (or a golem or mummy etc) could really be..

I'm old school 1st@2nd Ed DM/player that's the Gygaxian erra

Those were good books. There were mummy, ghost and vampire ones also. Have them.

@KS-PNW Месяц назад

@@samizdatbroadcasts7654 those are all quite good. I think the golem one was really useful in its own way. Gave lots ideas for how to take standard DND monsters and give them a true Gothic twist. You got something similar with the lycanthropy guide plus a lot cool were-species beyond the typical ones (werewolves etc). I mean a were-crocodile is just inherently cool AF!

Thanks again my friend! Okay gotta ask. WHERE did you get that AWESOME Map of The Sword Coast shown at T.S. 1:00 ? I love it! 🥰

I feel like this leaves out the new lore on liches and the steps to become one as printed in the 5e book Minsc and Boo's Journal of Villainy. In that book there is no mention of Orcus or praying to him and the ritual even mentions you can choose to consume the souls of fiends instead of humans, allowing a wizard to actually be Good instead of Evil by consuming demons and devils.

@The_NaturalOnes 16 дней назад

The lore is very different across editions, also that book is not widely regarded as “canon”

@sharp_iodine2737 16 дней назад

@@The_NaturalOnes Those are fair points although I will say it was put out by WotC. Considering the 100 year time-skip, maybe Irenicus figured out how to swallow fiends instead of humans. I love your videos, was just wondering why it was left out and that’s a pretty good reason. Thanks!

I’ve read a lot of that book but don’t typically include it in my research… maybe I should though, I appreciate the feedback!
