the reason is because dragons don't have "materials" whatever you harvest from a dragon is depending on your DM. DND isn't monster hunter after all and there isn't a selection of things you can get from every creature. especially since fighting a creature usually destroys those materials

@Voldrim359 2 жыл бұрын

@@joedatius As far as it goes with DnD, has a ton of variety of adventures and stories, like dungeon exploring, to participate in wars and sieges, even quest for relics and forgotten spells, there is no reason for monster hunting not be there, as there is a lot of monster you can fight in an adventure, even if they are dangerous

TSR was far more forthcoming on this. And dragons DO have materials. Their whole body. You can harvest every shred of their body that you didn't slash/pierce to infinity and back. In fact, I know older editions even specified exactly how much damage you could do with slash/pierce weapons before ruining the dragon's scales too badly to make armor from it etc., Anything that you didn't destroy in combat is there for the taking... it's a corpse not a mystery treasure chest.

At this point there is one continent populated by humanoids and creatures like any other material relm if that's really what it was. Now pale night with aide from baphomet and zuggotmoy are attempting to rein this run away demiplane back under demonic controle while the gods, brought here by there followers try and wretch away one of the last remaining havens in a multiverse that's seen every other material relm swallowed by the abyss.

Obyriths are the most interesting thing about the Abyss, a pity they are buried behind all other lore in hell and more common and newer demons.

@Krishnath.Dragon Жыл бұрын

It took a while, but we eventually got some stuff on them in both 3rd edition (in Fiendish Codex I: Hordes of the Abyss) and in 4th edition (in The Plane Below - Secrets of the Elemental Chaos), it wasn't much mind you, but that is what is required for the Obyriths to be believable ancient horrors that feel like they would be right at home in Lovecraft's Mythos. Of course, it helps that one of them is literally from the Mythos (that being Dagon). But what we got was quite enough for me to think that Pale Night was clearly the coolest of them. When you encounter her, she looks like a beautiful lady of indeterminable race, veiled only in semi-transparent cloth and mists. However, should you manage to catch a glimpse of her true form if the veils part, well, you'd better have a really good will save. If you succeed, you are rendered blind and your brain deletes what you saw from your memory. If you fail.... Well, time to roll up a new character, because your character is now incurably insane of the gibbering fool variety. And when I say incurable, I mean it. Not even godly intervention or the most powerful wish spell will restore the character, their mind is *gone*.

It's actually true. It is said in Mordekainen's Tome of Foes that abyssal influence corrupts material plane. If a portal to Abyss is open too long, territory around it will change to a landscape closer to abyssal, and more tears in reality will spawn until the whole world become a new layer of the Abyss.

The Obyrith are clearly a Lovecraft influence of the Great Old Ones, especially Dagon which HPL used directly, and has mythos references to ancient Syria, and also in the bible. Same with Pazuzu, who has mythology roots from the Mesopotamian cultures. But of all the Obyrith , it's Pale Night that creeps me out the most, because of the threatening ambiguity. You just know that if you ever got a peek under that bedsheet she goes around in, that you'll be rendered a permanent asylum resident from the sight of her sheer horrifying beauty...assuming that you even survive it.

The abyss is likely the most written about outer plane. I chalk this up to human nature and scary things being like moths to a flame. There's even a tavern in sigil with many alu-fiend and cambion workers that specializes in selling abyssal "tours" where rich patrons can buy a taste (a very tiny sip) of the abyss. They leave with tales of the (manufactured) horror they saw. Occasionally one or two get dragged off but too many would be bad for business so most make it back relatively safely... all carrying a new seed of evil in their minds to where ever their home worlds are. There they produce things like squid games to try and recreate that abyssal feelings. Truly a beautiful and majestic plane 😍. If there's something in this universe that you wish would tear your head off, spit down your throat and use your corpse as an object... its there and your not thinking grand enough!

Great video. You really tied all these disparate elements together into a single cohesive timeline. That's a huge project and I'm so impressed.

I was under the impression that Demons were spawned from the Abyss itself.

@MrRhexx 2 жыл бұрын

Technically there are demons that are not Tana'ri yeah, though d&d doesn't really delve too deep into them. The word infinite is also probably a bit deceiving. A billion demons would look like an infinite number of demons to anyone, and then there's also the fact that the abyss might get new souls faster than it takes for ppl to kill the demons; i guess you could also technically call that infinite.

@elegantoddity8609 2 жыл бұрын

I'm pretty sure it's not actually infinite but more effectively so. There's no way to count them all since the layers are so factitious that they can absorb each other and end up splitting apart, and new ones can show up, so the number is always in flux. Also only some demons come from humanoid souls.

@@TheHighestNoon Well not everyone in the dnd multiverse goes to a deity. Forgotten Realms setting has that stupid Wall of the Faithless for non believers but that doesn't apply to every world. In others you die and you go to the plane of most like alignment. I think the tanar'ri are most numerous because souls are much more "fertile" than a plane of pure entropy. It has something to work with and there's a whole universe of them to work with. The obyriths also suffered from bad life choices which drastically reduced their numbers before they got genocides several times. As for why demons outnumber everyone else, it's partially because they don't play by any rules. They don't bargain for souls, they straight up take them, dragging them off to the Abyss. Devils invade, demons infect. And good beings have a concern for free will that fiends don't share.

I bought the book and I L-O-V-E it, the golems Staff is just great, The way that you can reduce the cost if you have certain things, really make you think how to create it in a cool and descriptive way as a DM. So thanks a lot!

What a start to the outer planes. Looking forward to the next one, although I doubt any of the rest have such an interesting story behind them.

Great video! Found lots of information about the Abyss in it. The only complaint I have is the lack of any information of the Loumara, I’ve barely heard them mentioned on KZfaq at all but they seem incredibly interesting.

Big fan of your channel, the lore is incredible. By the way, could you eventually make a video about the Lady of Pain? All I know about her comes from that old game, Planescape Torment, and I found it awesome that she could just kill you and end the game in a second if you broke her rules.

I had to come back to this video to comment how amazing I thought you did on this video. Thank you for making it so bomb. Lots of inspiration to draw from here. P.S. I'd be SO DOWN if you dedicated a video to Tharizdun after this.

dragons hoard magic items due to their inherent value, dragons by all means are prideful and the idea of them using magic items that they haven't made since they're you know... dragons. makes perfect sense. a dragon can cast powerful spells naturally so why use a staff or wand, a dragons claws can rip through armor with ease so they don't need weapons, a dragon is one of the fastest flyers in the realms so it doesn't need boots of flying. a dragon magical by nature and powerful by birth. i feel when you try to add random items and such it takes away from what dragons are, and thats their existence being purely powerful just on their own.
