"It worked! ...so they put that universe aside and made a second universe." This is such a funny line.

I lost it at "The elves came back and told him not to do that."

"Halflings being irrelevant for 7 minutes straight" Also the dwarves were a funny mess: One Kingdom -> five kingdoms, everybody but the first one dies, repeat

Small note for anyone curious. Thr aboleth did not misjudge the size of the star stone, they had summoned a big enough rock, but two of the old human gods(possibly more idk) sacrificed themselves to reduce the impact from "world destroying" down to just "apocalyptic"

Love that Halflings is just there, and suddenly slaves

Cayden Cailean is my favourite deity for this exact reason. Bro went on a bender and woke up a god, I would watch that if it were to become a TV show 😂

Wow, if we are going to get this passing "Let's try other systems because that company tried to screw us" phase to stick, we need to do a LOT MORE OF THIS!!!!

>Calling Rovagug Cthulhu >Cthulhu also exists in Golarion

As convouted as a lot of that seems to be... I *really* like the lore that humans were created by ancient psychic abominations as a servitor race, but ended up chilling out after surviving an apocalypse.

Perfect timing for all us folks just getting into Pathfinder 2e.

The main takeaway was the noodle fish taught humans to wiggle their fingies and make magic.

Dwarves never seem to catch a break no matter what universe they're from...

Fun Fact About Rovagug: The Place Rovagug is locked in is a demi plane know as the Dead Vault (Inside of golarion) He has kids! Great Spawn Ulunat Kothogaz The Tarrasque Chemnosit Volnagur Lesser Spawn Crawling Hunger Gray-Stag-Devourer Emkrah You can also find some of his servants near the pit of Gormuz Galulab'daa The Slohr Trilochan The Weeper Yigachek

It is popularly said that the gnomes left the First World for the Material Plane out if curiosity, but it is heavily implied that they may have been cast out of the Fey because they followed an Eldest (pretty much a fey god) who's name has since been struck from history because he stole a piece of the River of Souls to introduce mortality to the curious gnomes. The first gnomes to arrive on Golarion had no souls and so when they perished they were essentially deleted with no afterlife and almost went extinct because they lost many of their fey attributes (hiding in shadows, much of their shape-shifting ability). Buuuut their children were born with souls and now must endlessly pursue new and interesting things or they will become a bleachling. I love gnomes ***edit*** So the gnomes DID have souls in the fey, they just weren't tied to the river of souls. They reincarnated in the fey like the rest of the fey creatures. Losing their connection to the First World without having a connection to the River of Souls is what ultimately destroyed the spirits of the immigrant gnomes. But their children being born here had that connection, fortunately. The migration nearly caused the gnomes to go extinct.

This is a masterpice.

At least one guy: "What about halflings?" The rest of the universe: "What ABOUT halflings?"

This is fantastic and now I want this in "the history of japan i guess" style. Which it's already really close to! "The dwarves united. But then all the dwarves outside Highhelm ~*died in a tornado*~ so the orcs took over. The dwarves were like 'please give those back' and the orcs said no. So they killed all the orcs and took back the cities. 'yay!' Then all the dwarves outside Highhelm ~*died in a tornado*~".

One of my favorite thing about the pathfinder setting book I had was how jn the timeline, it says how Cheliax was waiting for Aroden’s return to bring the Age of Glory and then it’s immediately followed by The Age of Darkness, Aroden dying being the first point a year later.

You should make a whole channel with just more in depth videos about PF. This is awesome

The fact that the gods made the First World with all its plants, creatures, and people, and then just said “lol bye our test run is over!” was so messed up. There’s a section in the First World book from PF1e where a fey says something along the lines of “We made the mistake of thinking we were first as in ‘firstborn’ when really we were first as in ‘first draft’”

There was also that one time that a giant alien spaceship that came from another planet crashed into the land of Conan barbarians, and destroyed the environment while leaving a bunch of sci-fi laser guns and other cool stuff laying around. The aliens who created this ship were actually Humans, but not the Humans created by the squid-fish who wanted to rule stuff, and these alien Humans were lazy so they created a bunch of fake Humans with cool tattoos to do everything for them. Unfortunately all but one of these alien Humans aboard the spaceship died during the crash, and the one that did survive was assassinated by the group of Conan wizards she recruited to help her go home because they wanted all the cool sci-fi stuff. The Conan wizards then started to horde all the laser guns and enslaved the fake Humans because "synths aren't real people", then started enslaving real people because they're kinda evil and everyone in the land of Conan and Space Robots had a bad time for a long time.

You literally make the perfect videos for my taste. Straight to the point, no unnecessary filling-text so it's easy to understand everything (I'm not a native english speaker, kudos to you), and the editing is just perfect for me (easy to edit-in-bulk simplistic stock photo images without CGI or special effects (so it's not straining to the creator), but tastefully cooked together, and most importantly: the visuals illustrate the audio and is perfectly synced with it). You are a great youtuber, and the Pathfinder community needs you.

Nailed it, Pathfinder lore is wild

As a note, I love how unsubtle Golarion is in its being Fantasy Earth in its map/worldbuilding. The sunken old glorious kingdom even being called Azlant. Edit- the solar system also has a Mars-equivalent red planet which is sorta "John Carter but in Pathfinder"

Well, Yog-Sothoth was actually there with Pharasma.

Excellent explaining, I would love to see full series made out of pathfinder lore from you.

Just to add, from the fact that their are humans native to Avistan, Tian Xia, and Garund who seem to have existed there before meeting the Azlanti or their descendants, I think a better way of describin the Aboleths is they 'uplifted' primitive humans into the Azlanti, rather than creatin them themselves.

Good job, this is much easier and well put than me explaining everything to my new players.

Quickest video covering all of pathfinder lore. Now someone has to do it in 1 minute.

I've been trying to learn about pathfinder lore, what a great jumping off point. Also, kinda has "history of the entire world I guess" energy

As somebody who's getting used to the lore this was both really fun and informative. Thanks a lot ^-^

Your channel is absolutely amazing. Thank you so much. The comedy, pacing, story and information delivery is just perfect.

Hahha! This is very funny and well done. What makes it great is Golarion's lore is 90% mumb-jumbo so when you hear something, you think, "Ahh OK that's what happened...umm.. OK yea."

Pretty neat. Thank you for making this easy-to-digest Pathfinder lore video.

Hi. I'm new to your videos and I'm really impressed. Gobbling up all you offer! Awesome stuff!

One small issue, very minor but just thought I'd add that pharasma isn't the only survivor of the last universe. All the outer gods and great old ones are also from the last one.

This has given me great inspiration! Thanks!

I need more of this, it's like Bill Wurtz for pathfinder

What a great video! Please do more!

Great Vid! Really helpful! The deities are so interesting in PF2E, if not a little intimidating.

When you literally make me fall in love in 50 seconds, this channel is awesome!!!

Alright this is GLORIOUS. I I need more of these, so many many more!

Color me intrigued and amused. I like it. Digestible and funny lore at the same time is never a bad thing. :)

That was a great summary, thanks mate

Now do a pathfinder to StarFinder. Honestly it’s literally just “we forgot, that one planet at the beginning is gone, yet safe. And people go about their lives”. Could be wrong. Been a bit since I read the lore

This was really silly but very educating. Thank you :D

This is an excellent super-summary!

Love how Garund gets about 3 sentences in this.

This was good, please make more lore videos!

Thank you so much for making this video it's a real KZfaq move.

Very enjoyable intro to the lore

This is fantastic!

Well that clears it all up. Ty.

Thanks. Video is really helpful. Liking and subscribing.

This video is so good, OMGs!

Awesome! Please, more lore in 7min!

Thank you, very cool

Very very very good video.

WOOO! Another great video. Can we haz moar? Pleaz!? Kthxbai… In all seriousness I love your style of humor. The fact that I get to enjoy it while being educated is just icing on the cake. Can we get a "Pathfinder 2e Lore in 7 More Minutes or Less"? Followed up by "Pathfinder 2e Lore in 7 More More Minutes or Less, sorta?"

So is the Critical Role setting based off of the Pathfinder Lore?

O neat a mashup of all the other fantasy creatives not named Tolkien but still based on Tolkien.

Holy *Bleep* It had to be Cheliax!. I have finally experienced the glory of playing pathfinder for the first time since July and Cheliax was constantly brought up every time. Now I decided to listen to lore and learned where exactly did they came from.

Very nice!

As a history major, I approve this video. 👏🎲

more lore videos pls !

Wasn't there a deity that died minimizing the damage from Starstone's impact by pulling the moon in front of it?

Very concise.

very useful intro )

Interesting!

Nice overview.

Yo, you forgot the entire Thassilonian bit. Kinda important.

Could you produce something similar to this but around the closing of the world wound or the destruction of the runelords??? I would love it!!

You gotta tell people about the demons on the moon, the demons on the moon are iconic.

I'm about to start playing 2e and rolling a cleric. I may use this as how my character's head priest explains the world's creation

Arazni has such a cool story... from hero to angel to lich to a freebeing.

Ah fuck. Now i'm into another whole lore.

More please!

Poor dwarves. Constantly getting kicked around.

Thanks.

The creation of the universe has conflicting information depending on which book you choose to believe. While the Windsong Testaments does claim Pharasma was the first to appear from the Seal, and Concordance of Rivals seems to confirm that she might be the oldest being in creation, the Book of the Damned claims that Asmodeus and his brother Ihys were the first motes of light from the Seal, and others came after. You can make of that what you will.

3:33 here he is. Best god. All hail Nethys the All-Seying Eye.

I'm curious as to how this ties in with Starfinder. I haven't played Pathfinder since 1e days, and some of this I actually didn't know.

Golarion is just another campaign settings in my Pathfinder 2e universe. Players just adventure, no campaign setting ever mentioned, even if its a demi-plane. All D&D universe lore, campaign settings, monsters, deities, etc. all applies, all the way back to AD&D 1e.

Juat realized where Matthew Mercer got Tal'dorei from 😆

yo, make a 7 minutes video of how to gm and how to homebrew in 2e

Rovagug hmmm that sounds like it Was Inspiration for critical role season 3

How different is this from the lore in 1e?

And then one day piece of the universe fell on golarion and decided to become tables

Thanks for this info dump to this noob. The creation story is, different, for sure.

What about the Alien Starships and laser guns?

Suddenly: Halflings!

I've been playing pathfinder since 2012 and I didn't know half of the lore in this video

Is this a spoiler vid of stuff revealed in official adventures, or a vid of stuff to know before playing?

This is chaotic lol 😆

Playing an angel sounds badass. Is it possible to create such a character in pathfinder 2e?

This lore dump totally justifies why my own lore is better for my tables

The video ended, and then it died. I said "Don't do that". Then I hit like, and it became a god. Then most of the dwarves died again.

Man the dwarves just kept getting shat kn huh?

👏👏👏👏

You have to redo this video, but to the tone of the "History of Japan" video PLEASE!
