The idea of a dracolich is both simple and brilliant.

I like the idea of their lairs being twisted versions of what they once where. Extinct Volcanoes, Toxic Coves, Desiccated Swamps, Deserts glassed by constant necrotic lighting, and Haunted Forrest infested with blights.

This month is hands down my favorite batch of episodes. From the Banshee dying in the middle of town to the fireball rave party to the possessed Froghemoth corpse I have never laughed harder when listening to this show.

Can i just say, thank you? I've learned so much of D&D lore through this channel, and as a DM this helped me set up the lore of my game for my players. Any time anyone asks where they could go to learn the lore i always point them this way. So thanks, you've genuinely made my life a lil bit easier

Good laughs in this one.

Gotta get it done as a Wyvern, damn, giant crocodile, nope, Firenewt, come on, Tortle? ends up scuttling away as one of those little anole lizards that gather by your porch light eating bugs in the summer.

Honestly, this show needs more love and attention,

One of the funniest episodes ever!

Hell yea! I was hoping we’d get a dracoliches episode for Halloween considering it’s the year of the dragon.

Setting up a drocolich undying warlock patron. Just in time! Thanks for setting the mood for this backstory.

I've always imagined that Orcis would have several powerful liches and drakoliches in his employ

The first thing I think of when I hear dracolich, Durnaviir the cursed guardian of the soul cairn

first time i’ve seen Will crack up

I always give my drakoliches and even very old dragons spellcasting......and adjust lair and regional effects for the drakolich using the normal lich ones... works like a charm

I can't wait to ride a Dead dragon through the desert of demonic dangers!

spoopy dragon

I would use your channel as my falactory... it never drops in value.

The froghemoth swallow you whole and passes you 3 turns later. Congrats you are a ghoul.

sombody make Froghemoth Skeleton stats please

My initial thought was that the dracolich was similar to Pain from Naruto.

YES IT FINALLY HAPPENED!!!

Hey guys! I just wanted to say hi and thank you for making this show! I have been listening for a week or so using this podcast to build a foundation of DND knowledge for my first upcoming DM adventure. I've been bouncing around for specific videos and I really appreciate how focused you guys are, and how organized all this is. Itd be so much harder to find this information if you guys didn't document it the way you do. I truly love the way you guys talk about this stuff. It's easy to understand and I like how well you guys connect other things to it and give imagery as well. It's fantastic. And I also want to say how surprising it is that you have kept the same theme song for the entire time you've recorded this show! I wanted to ask, if I decide to shout you out for one reason or another, what places work and what places don't. I use Facebook mainly and sometimes Instagram, but I'm a bit more disconnected than most. And then just as well, if I want to ask you guys a very broad question, what's the best place to ask that? Email? Or a comment on a post? Thanks so much for all this useful information!

Great episode guys! Many laughs and a few campaign ideas even!

THE YEAR OF THE DRAGON CONTINUES ONWARD! just as I do in continuing to serve the dungeoncast by liking and commenting!!! yes! hahaha! I freaking called it! I knew we'd get dracoliches this week! I can predict the future! I've been waiting for this episode. I absolutely love dracoliches. they're just so badass. then again I'm already very partial to dragons and undead. heck my favorite deities in dnd currently are vecna and bahamut. though weirdly I don't care for tiamat. though I'm surprised will didn't bring up proto dracoliches since they are so important to the creation of a dracolich. also just wanna say this was one of the funniest videos I've seen from you two. my only complaint is that it wasn't longer. I need more dungeoncast lol. I know I've said all of this before but Brian I just have to say don't you dare ever let any of those people who occasionally comment something like "the guy on the right is annoying" get to you. because that bit about the stock market ruining a dracolich ritual was absolutely fucking hilarious! that joke alone proves that not only are you freaking funny but just plain fucking awesome man. there's just no other way of saying it but being that blunt about it. also will saying how one would be terrified at the froghemoth coming out of nowhere was also hilarious. I guess all I'm trying to say Is thank you both so much for doing this and giving us all good laughs. I know I make jokes by referring to will as the lord of knowledge and brian the Lord of laughter but in all honestly, I think your both very funny when you want to be and you both show that your legitimately intelligent when you want to. like for example, look back to the moradin video when brian was talking about the idea of dwarves being reincarnated drawing the parallel between dwarves and the earths mantle and stuff. I can't remember exactly what he said I need to rewatch that episode but I do remember thinking that analogy was genius. in fact it inspired me to create a character in my own fantasy world I write stories of for my friends. the basic idea is a dwarven avatar who gets reborn in times of great need to save the dwarven people. anyway I think I've kissed enough butt. lol time for a short rest. :) hey everybody welcome to the short rest where I just wanna say I love you! dont worry about what'll happen if you decide to become an undead abomination to escape death! because I'm still going to be sending you all the love I can! but I'm going to cut the short rest short and finish this weeks comment! as I said before dracoliches are just awesome.also forgot to mention above but it's also a thing that only evil dragons are capable of becoming dracoliches. it's also a little coincidental this video would come out now as I just recently slew the ur Dragon in dragons dogma for the first time, as that is essentially a dracolich. it was offline and took at least a couple hours but it was great. as for dracolich regional effects I'll try to give some decent ideas. ok so maybe the monsters lair could be filled with a toxic miasma. everything that dies to close to the lair automatically gets raised as an undead death tyrant style. maybe all undead who enter the monsters domain automatically fall under some kind of mind control of the dracolich. if you had one living near a volcano maybe the lava could turn purple and black and also do necrotic damage. if it lives in a swamp maybe the water turns toxic. maybe rains becomes acid rain if it was a black Dragon in life. the toxic water could also apply to snow if it's a white Dragon. that's all I can think right now. have a good day all. :)

Bahamut: YOU GOT THE TOUCH! You got the power!!!!

Back on this ep for the Froghemoth. Froghemolich for life.

Just found you guys and just need to say I love the stuff I've seen so far.

Mists that spawn wisps is one that I do with my black dracolich.

sp00ky scary skeletons

This is why I love the Dracolich from 4e it was so imposing and awe inspiring but also super scary to face becuas eit wasn't a template and it could do some serious damage

What about vampire dragons? You forgot about those undead dragons!!

Spooky scary almost skeleton

How to stop a dragon from becoming a lich. Dump gold into the market. 8:00

Becoming a dracolich is blaspheme unto IO Azgorath. Becoming dracolich changes the dragons fealty to Orcus, and is frowned on by IOAzgorath, tiamat, et al. Dragons are patient, but punishment is inevitable.

Cool zombie dragon dracolitch skulllord that needs to exit

So I plan on running a dracolich as part of the endgame for my group...are you saying to combine the dracolich and lich stat blocks togather?

I know im a little late, but Hero Forge is awesome

Looks like the year of the bong was felt heavily in this episode

Hello just started listening to all your guys stuff and this got me thinking with the mention of Eberron. There is a half dragon, half elf Lich and this got me thinking. Would she require bodies like a dracolich or souls like a regular Lich? Perhaps some combination of both?

The people demand a Froghemo-Lich episode next Spooktober!

Do y’all know how many Draco-lich rituals fucked up when the stock market crashed... a lot

Night Dragon is what I want airbrushed along the side of my El Camino. Also, I want an El Camino.

13:51. Break Ends

Hey guys, great show! I've been binge watching you for months, and i'd like to make a request. Pls make a "Aberration" and a "Construct" episodes, like you did with the fey, talking about generic features, lore and most prominent creatures. It would be awesome! Thnx !

Do you think Black and Green dragons be more likely to become Dracoliches? The Black dragons seem like they try to avoid death at all costs and the Greens are the most scheming and magic sensitive. Or on the flipside, White, Blue, and Red seem the least likely. Whites are just too primal. Blues and Reds seem like they're too prideful to think that they could be better than what they currently are.

I mean, if Fire Emblem let you have weapon made out of dragon bones, idk why you can't in dnd

Grungolich

Spectober

So since my dragons are more like dragonflies so insectoid, how do i make a dracoliche? would it look normal since skeleton is carapace or would it be a goo dragon?

What if a dracolich cloned it's original body to use as extra bodies in case it dies? Would that work?

Go dracolichs

hey guys i dont know if ill get a response from this but im attempting to put a half- dragon- (High) Elf Sorcerer (mother was highborn elf and dad was gold dragon and my character's magic origin is draconic origin obviously) together but ive never really played DnD except with premade sheets or fudged rules to play simple campains and would really like to be able to make a character but dont really understand all the ins and outs of creating one except backstories. Any help and advice would be nice. btw love superquest saga and am spreading the word about it!!

Just came on for something to watch and I get a new video ❤️ when's the next super quest saga?

Neat

So when's the white dragon coming?

You forgot the Rosemary now the dracolich went rogue and now he's eating the princess. Lol Why did it go wrong? Guys I'm looking at the stock market right now it's not good we done goofed man we shouldn't have put so much into Amazon. Guyss this Emerald isn't real! oh shit! A terrible body hopping dracolich would be hilarious.

The Dragon Videos are really good, but is there a possiblity you will go further on Giantkin. I am pretty shure Cyclops are Guantkin too. I want too write a campaign that is very focused on the War between Dragons and Giants.

Hay how would I make sun wukong in dnd.great video its amazing

Do you guys ever delve into the older 3.5e content?

So...can they still transform? Can you be fighting a humanoid lich that suddenly transforms and reveals itself to be a dracolich?

Thanks for keeping the ad short I understand ppl gots to make $ but there's such a huge difference between a 30 second ad at the beginning of a 30 minute video and a 3 minute ad. 1.6% of the video or 10% of the video. 3 minute ad break I might as well turn the tv on and not have to click around.

Bahamut=Optimus Prime. Gold Dragon=Ultra Magnus. Silver Dragon=Bumble Bee. Bronze Dragon=Arcee. Tiamat=Megatron. Green Dragon=Starscream. Blue Dragon=Soundwave. Black Dragon=Laserbeak.
