Will and Brian continue onward with the Year of the Dragon, and this time it's another evil chromatic. Black Dragons are vile and vicious in their own right, despite the drop in physical power compared to other different colored rivals.

I've always imagined black dragons having the body type of like a puma or panther, just giant and scaly.

I’m not sure where I heard this, but Im pretty sure a green dragon wouldn’t actually come into contact with a black dragon in a jungle because greens don’t like jungles in the first place. It is much too hot, dark, and moist for the green dragon to actually enjoy the smells and sights of a jungle forest. They prefer a much colder and more temperate environment than they do jungles because of how much they enjoy the smell of the forest. I’m not sure if i’m wrong, but please feel free to fact check me if i am

No you've hit the nail on the head, they enjoy the changing of the seasons in a forest and you do find green dragon in the jungle, it is either a young one in search of a proper home or was kicked out by a more powerful dragon

My homebrew legendary action on black dragons is move half speed and stealth. Also give them the ability to stealth in dim light and expertise/proficiency in stealth. Players freak out when massive black dragon step back into the darkness or slides into the water and hides.

I've also done the animated breath weapon as like a blob monster from that movie The Blob where the dragon vomits up a certain size animated acid blob and it goes around doing the dragons bidding.

And you didn't even get to the part where they kill their food, then let it rot in fouled water to get the right taste before they eat it.

I homebrewed some Mossy looking Tree humanoids and called them mosslings. While fighting through a ruined castle in a bog, fighting all different types my players were terrified when piercing yellow eyes glared at them through the murky depths and lunged out snatching the barbarian in it's Jaws pulling him under... The party literally started panicking it was amazing!!

@sea_triscuit7980 3 жыл бұрын

What ended up happening was the barbarian was able to shake himself free somehow with a strength saving throw and grab onto the horns of the black dragon, riding it to the surface, it was honestly one of the most badass things one of my players has ever done

Blacks are my favorite D&D dragons I think. Aside from maybe some of the planar ones nobody remembers.

The first time I ever encountered a black dragon in any way was Onyx from Dragons of Autumn Twighlight. I believe her dragon name was Khisanth.

I had an idea for an episode for the year of the Dragon. I know one of the editions has lore about a primordial named asgorath that created Dragon kind. from what little I've seen it seems like the various creation myths for dragons are pretty conflicting so I was thinking maybe you guys at some point could do an episode talking about all the different creation myths for dragons. or maybe a deities and demigods for asgorath. just an idea not sure if you've gone into detail about any of this before so if you have just ignore me I guess.

Good video. My suggestion would be to try to say “like” a little less. It’s extremely common now for everyone and I have to talk a bit slower to not overuse the word myself.
