Рет қаралды 466
Күн бұрынIn this video series we check out the classic Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Module, C1 The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan room-by-room and in detail as a Dungeon Master. This is not a review, but rather an in-depth study on every encounter, how to run it, and how players often perceive the challenges.
The entire series is also on my website!

Like the lore behind Tamoachan? Here is an older video that digs into the Greyhawk Map and the pregenerated characters, Rhialle, Myrrha, and Cair kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gJtyZMJnut6yYKc.htmlsi=VerD6aQt9kOLPQ2J

Thank you for the video! I am currently running it for the first time with my players. I changed the niches up a bit into being a Creation Story and Tamoachan history (lots of fun backstory to learn about Zotzilaha, Tloques Popolocas, and other upcoming points of interest). There is a hidden gem in each diaplay, and the center alcove had a priest with a tray. The players had to give up the gems in order for the door to unlock. If they tried to trick it (using rocks or coins), the poison gas would begin to fill the room, making them panic (and believe the gods are really watching them!). It led to a fun Indiana Jones-esque scene of them trying to figure out how many rocks equal the weight of the gems. They failed spectacularly. Looking forward to hearing you talk about the rest of the rooms!

Hey there! I'm glad you enjoy the videos. I'm trying to go through the areas quickly, but still add meaningful conversation, ideas, dungeon master thoughts on the rooms, how to run them, things that can be tricky, etc. Modern players are not the same as we were as kids in 1977-1980. I hope you have fun. Be sure and bookmark the playlist! kzfaq.info/sun/PL4eDfZIBxlUaJhxxpb0uLeZ0Sffw9pdVT

It's true, I'm playing the 5e version based out of the Tales from the Yawning Portal book. But I love the tiny differences between the versions!

Little late to this, but I've seen professionals pronounce the word "quetzal" like KEHT-zull. i.e. the god Quetzalcoatl is Keht-zull-koh-OT-ull for example. After learning the letter & letter-combo pronunciations of mesoamerican words, it's easy to sound it one syllable at a time and then combine it. No really weird letter sounds in English spellings, unlike Welsh for instance. Lots of syllables for their names, though, so take it slow at first. 😁

Thanks for this! I am terrible at interesting word combinations. For a big laugh check out this video.

@@Classic_DM I recall seeing an old D&D pronunciation guide or two back in the day. In which I found out that drow was pronounced with a hard "o", as in the word 'grow' and sounds cooler to me than rhyming them with cow. I guess that never got around much judging by how many people I see using the latter these days. 🤔
