Okay, if the guy who can cast third level spells at will and can hit you with two Power Word Kills in one encounter is a simulacrum, I don't want to know how the real Acererak was in his prime.

@MarkWaner 2 жыл бұрын

He died, though. Maybe, simulacrum got better than the original

@McDonaldWilliamT 2 жыл бұрын

Necro'ing this, but well, the real Acererak was the boss of Tomb of Horrors. IF you actually encountered him (There was a fake in the ToH as well, a zombie gussied up to look like a mighty Lich), then he really only had one attack. He would use it on the strongest member of the party. Instant Death, No Save, no resist, nothing. He straight up eats your fucking soul and you die with nothing short of a max power Wish Spell being able to bring you back.

@@antimatterstudios8395 Kinda? I mean the 'real' Tomb was the whole thing, it's just that the whole of the Tomb of Horrors was one big grift by Acererak. He made the whole thing himself as a way to lure in dumb adventurers so the insane logic breaking puzzle traps would kill them and he could eat their souls for sustenance and get a bunch of free magic items from their corpses.

@@canaryinacoalmine1759 I Demi pitch needs a phylactery for their soul, to stop it from going to the afterlife. They must feed this phylactery souls in order to maintain both it and their own soul. A Demi litch if formed in two ways. The first is that a litch fails to feed its phylactery and degrades into a Demi litch. due to the Demi litch description of Acerac for seeing his own degradation, this might be an inevitability rather than a possibility, likely caused by the phylactery slowly failing. These Demi Litches are lesser than litches The second is the path pioneered by acererak, where becoming a Demi litch is used a the next step in a litches undead evolution/life. This involves taking the litches skull and turning it into their phylactery. Important to know is that if a phylactery is destroyed the litch will not reform if defeated, with a Demi litch only having a phylactery for a physical form (their skull), their phylactories destruction cause’s the end of their immortal life, thus The original Acererak is gone for good.

I've got another little fact of lore for you, regarding the fate of the original Acererak: In the 3.5e book "Tome of Magic" they introduce vestiges, a kind of being who died under such strange conditions, that it was thrown out of the normal bounds of the multiverse. They can now only have sensual experiences inside the Multiverse, by forming pacts with its inhabitants and then entering their bodies and grant the host powers in return. Acererak ist listet as one of those vestiges and explained to have become such a being upon his defeat within the Tomb of Horrors. He had attempted to become one with the Negative Energy Plane and succeeded far enough, that the pull of the plane prevented his soul from drifting to the afterlife, but since it could not enter the Negative Energy Plane either, it remained expelled from the Multiverse. If this lines up with the lore from other sources, I don't know, but the sourcebook is an official one.

This actually helps me out a lot. I tried to run this module as a first-time DM and there were a lot of dots that just weren't connecting and a lot of lore that I didn't feel like I could incorporate organically. This actually gives me a lot of context so I can work on having things feel less shoehorned in. Thanks!

2:10 what...? The story of the simulacrum was a small little adventure. And TOH has a sequel called Return to the Tomb of Horrors which continues on into the 4e Tomb of Horrors which is a continuation of that where it explains why Acererak survives (I won’t spoil it here in case anyone wants to look) This is a cool theory/self made lore but cannon wise he’s just very *very* difficult to kill because of tendencies to become a vestige. As for why he’s a ArchLich and not Demi-lich, I think that has to do with Demi-Liches being nerfed as a weaker form in 5e. Also 5e seems to have done a soft reboot on him as well hence no mentions of his history other than Oerth

@SyntheticDarkSoul 4 жыл бұрын

Acererak can't be aan Aarchlich, because those "were good beings during their life" ( Monster Compendium: Monsters of Faerûn, p.90). So Acererak must be lich or demilich. Proof: forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Demilich

Yeah, Rhexx does some awesome videos, but sometimes they are way off base. Lots of non-canon stuff here. Also, the very different Tomb of Horrors for 4e pretty much established that Acererak had been downgraded from the vestige he was in 3e to demilich again.

@sanddry738 4 жыл бұрын

Bastian Schöls He is described as an ArchLich in TOA meaning that WOTC changed the meaning. (Vecna in MTOF is also described as an ArchLich) Personally I like define the good ones as ArcLich and very powerful Liches as ArchLich for this edition. But yeah that’s just another contradiction in 5E. I suspect this is because Demi-Liches have been downgraded in 5E yet Acererak is supposed to be a more powerful than normal lich.

I always find it interesting that a lot of people who grew up on 2e either love or hate 5e. Most seem to love it. I grew up on 3e so 5e was a disappointment to me as it was extremely flat, streamlined, and changed the dynamics of all power to be 100% on the side of players. And the change in player base mentality has been extremely difficult. You'll find players these days find even the possibility of death to be offensive and a sign of a bad DM.

It's so hard to forget how folks at WoTC are so good at creating worlds and lore, Adventures that (even if badly made like Elemental Evil) have repercussions on the lore, it's also so easy to just look at a Faerun map and ask yourself " What is the Tortured land, the Turnback Mountains and the White Peak?" It's so interesting to read up on equally as a DM or a player. A DM can look up one of these names and create a quest with most likely enough material to make an interesting story, A player that knows that their quest takes place there can acquire information to create a very interesting PC with a purpose in these lands or a connection.

Unfortunately the party died on the fourth floor due to bad luck and player exhaustion cause the dungeon really kicked their teeth in between rough fights and bad rolls.

Uhh... I don't know where you're getting this about Acererak being a simulacrum of the original. Yes, there was an adventure that featured a simulacrum of Acererak (The Prisoner of Castle Perilous, 2007), but the original Acererak never died. His phylactery was destroyed, but because of wizard fuckery, he endured in the Negative Energy Plane and it is generally assumed that the outcome of that adventure (Return to the Tomb of Horrors, 1998) was that his essence was dispersed, but would eventually return. I mean, it's not like he's about to go blabbing about it to the characters and make a big deal out of it, but it's still not really an accurate piece of lore. Otherwise, very good info. I am so glad that someone else brought up Ras Nsi's history. He's not treated very well at all by the adventure. I had to totally revise him. Same thing with Artus Cimber. I had to tie his story more closely to the adventure. I wish I had known about the Heart of the Wild storyline before I ran the adventure! Thanks for the video!
