Had a DM who split the vampires into two distinct types. Type one was nosferatu, they got nice resistances and greater physical ability but were really weak to the classic tropes and not very smart. Type two was highborn, they were much rarer and had to be created by another high born on purpose, were not nearly as weak to silver or holy water, (still hurt but not in an obvious physical way, which meant with good rolls they could pretend to be human) They also had magical ability and were smart. It allowed for the addition of subterfuge and the question of who is human & is that noble secretly a vampire just using me against rivals ?

I think of the dark powers as the true counterpoints to the gods. The gods in d&d dwell in the astral sea natively, as they are expressions of thought. We worship or give will to the idea and ideal of duty and honor and the astral sea gives us torm. Mortals worship or give will to beauty and love, and sune is. The dark powers are similar expressions in the astral sea, but they have no names and cant really be described, they are secretive and unknowable because they are the darkest parts of mortals, the dark dark stuff deep within that we dont allow ourselves to acknowledge or even percieve. These powers are nihilistic, and interact with the universe to bring about its own destruction. Thats why they perpetuate and empower evil. They give those on self destructive courses, (like strahd) the power to multiply their evil and destruction. The dark powers are that impulse within us all to jump when we are near a precipice.

Ahriman is the prime deity of evil order, living at the bottom of the 9 hells devouring the souls of atheist and others that reject the gods. this dude is so badass that it's rumored Asmodeus is his simply his Avatar. i think Ahriman is empowering vecna so that when his ultimate demise comes he has the most powerful soul in the multiverse to power up and just devour everything

in 4th edition they wrapped the domains of dread into the shadowfell! The exact canon mythology is up in the air for 5th edition. I think they're keeping it ambiguous for 5e so that you can decide. The books I leveraged for this video were all 2nd edition, this was before the Shadowfell was narratively created for 4e.

Wouldn't a wish spell do it, instead of the big cockamamie scheme? Or a simulacrum could go after Kas and probably still be plenty powerful for the job... Idk. Just curious about options Vecna likely already has readily available that would not require him to put himself in danger of a party of adventurers to stumble in and ruin. I haven't played in decades but the plot seems... Idk kinda silly and likely unnecessary. Anyone else think about this story along these lines?
@dragonkin877
@dragonkin877 9 месяцев назад
So I know it's been a year since you commented this but to answer your question. The dark Powers the dreadlords whatever you want to call. Are pretty much the most powerful things with in. Dungeons & dragons very little is known about them and what is understood is confusing and brings up more questions than anything else. Those Powers brought both of them to their current stat and they for want for what ever whether it be for punishment or some twisted game. Theywish for them to keep fighting each other for all of eternity. So even if one figure out a way around the mists and did succeed they most likely will just reset it to continue it again. Strahd has been killed several times but always comes back most likely the same would happened to those two.

@@Jorphdan Technically true. I meant that Exandria wasn't part of the canon mutiverse when Matt wrote the Vecna story and the picture is from the second campaign promo. Knowing the connection between CR and Vecna made me think you were trying to point out something specific there instead of just using them as a very random example.

Is his appearance in critical role/Vox Machina(Tel Dori), DnD canon?
@Jorphdan
@Jorphdan 2 года назад
DnD canon is tricky. It's all tied to settings and storylines. Short answer, no. Long answer it is canon for vox machina and potentially the greater critical role setting

Cool... that's basically what I went with when I DM'd Curse of Strahd... but when one of the PCs assumed that the Morninglord and Lythander were the same deity, I had to basically brush that subject under the rug because I didn't know much about the Forgotten Realms setting, haha

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but i don't think you're pronouncing Oerth correctly. I used to pronounce it like Urth, but I have been corrected by an old school contemporary of Gygax, he told me that it's pronounced Oyth with the beginning Oy sounding like the Yiddish exclamation. this is a minor quibble and may totally be apocryphal, but I trust the source who told me.

Vecna wants to be the last greater deity. Yeah...maybe leave Mystra alone, I'd rather magic didn't go completely haywire yet again and when another tries to take over her domain nothing good ever comes of it to the weave or to that god themselves either.

I'm always puzzled why WOTC doesn't reintroduce these modules into 5th ed. It is a great source of lore and would be an easy way to make money while they work on newer modules. Then I remember what WOTC is doing to D&D by only focusing on being woke and not the actual game, then I get sad again.

I'm sad that you attribute "wokeness" to a corporation when simply creating new material has a larger audience than reworking old material. It must be hard to think that your game of playing pretend is being taken away from you by your online enemies.

"Wokeness" is burning itself out of society, and while its very annoying, every period has its trying times, and better Wokeness than, say, The Depression, or another world war, or maybe even the cold war?

@@nonnayerbusiness7704 That's the exact mentality I am writing about. I guess its equally hard to be a victim all the time and believe that the only way to eases your make-believe trama by throwing a temper tantrum. I am sure you don't know there but if you want a game like try GURPS.
