    "Listen, lad. I built this kingdom up from nothing. When I started here, all there was was stamp. Other kings said I was daft to build a castle on a stamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em. It stuck onto the stamp. So, I built a second one. That stuck onto the stamp. So, I built a third one. That burned down, fell over, then stuck onto the stamp, but the fourth one... stayed up! And that's what you're gonna get, lad: the strongest castle in these islands."

    Don't forget that there are coastal wetlands other than mangrove forests. Make your characters have to navigate a salt marsh and not only do they need to get through grass that can be over their head while trudging through dense mud but they need to contend with a water level that changes with the tide.

    Love this video. My whole campaign takes place in a massive swamp/wetland that is populated by the various Dragonborn groups. and it is all on the ruins of an ancient Yuan-ti empire that dots the region itself. It has been fun thinking of travel - there are no beasts of burden in the classical sense instead it has a very venice like feeling with boats of all sizes being the form of travel almost exclusively. It has been a great challenge as a DM to do away with all the classical fantasy tropes in this case..

    One of the things that comes to mind for me is treants. Almost every treant I've seen in a game was in your stereotypical temperate forest. But trees grow in a lot of other environments, so you could have a type of treant in swamp. I think one of the most memorable of these is when, in the Skull & Shackles AP, the party encountered a Palm Tree treant (Palm Treant? ;D ). That campaign was years ago but I still recall that moment because it was different than your bog-standard (pun intended) treant.

    One of my favorite adventure locations was a little goblin village built on a series of floating islands in a swamp. The islands weren't stable enough to support a medium creature but could hold a goblin pretty reliably. They laid some planks to create little walkways for visiting medium creatures, but the walkways also funneled creatures into kill zones so they could be peppered with arrows if they caused trouble.

  • @restoredtuna8264
    @restoredtuna8264 3 роки тому

    In the world I’m making now there’s a large area in the middle of the game world known as the “Misty Deep” it’s technically both a swamp and marsh depending on where you are in it. The reason this place is so scary and designed to be avoided is that the mist in the swamp is so thick that along with the trees it makes the swamp so dark and humid that creatures from the deep sea often migrate into it, giving a great opportunity to incorporate the most dangerous deep sea creatures into terrestrial gameplay, I think it will be interesting. (Plus I have loads of lore around the place to be found)

    On a note for the giant animal bit, Titanic heirons which hide their bodies in the canopies while you can pass through their legs on a boat in a swamp, anything really shiny gets targeted first with an iron like beak that hurdles from 50ft or so up and lifts the poor shy thing up before trying to get it. And while it does so it attacks with what the party thought were trees.

    I live in the bayou region. I did some boat tours and I can't possibly imagine how uncanny it would be to march in, or canoe in, at night, with no GPS, and no sun screen, and no bug spray.
    The Bayou has been grounds for some amazingly innovative tactics from old IRL wars as well. Demolition of vital bridges to cut supply routes, or circumventing enemy forces by naval insertions. it's a daunting thought to consider dredging thru with no other options to go around. Quite a demoralizing terrain to break the player's spirit.

    A black dragon in a bog would make things so damn acidic within five miles. Imagine the venting steam. Just the smell and color would alert seasoned monster hunters, though, so it would make sense for the black dragons to adapt and tone it down depending on the season and surroundings.
    One thing that worked for me was starting a two-shot game with seven players, each playing seven dwarves, and having them create key members of a dwarf colony in a salt marsh. It was just off to the side of a river delta. The players did make key members of that colony’s upper management, and they were instrumental in holding the stone causeway at the gate of the coal mine. They also mined for iron and copper, and traded their many resources for tin and aid from the capital city of Brindeszreen, where Moradin himself was said to rule in person.
    Anyway turned out “Moradin” was a hill giant soaking up demigod powers from all the worship. But a cleric of Moradin among the players, having seen some of the world and the goodness in others, was contacted by the imprisoned Moradin somewhere else. And the real Moradin acted as that player’s Stand, while the players accidentally unleashed an awakened chunk of Arambar in the city of the Poser!Moradin... but that’s all another story for another time. Good time though.

    Swamps, bogs, and wetlands oh my. The smells of the swamp from sweet to sewage. 110% humidity you can see the tiny drops of water in the air. Predators like to hunt water holes. Hangman's tree is not evil just hungry. That's why my druidic groove is in a swamp. On the north of a ridge it drops to a karst area off a bluff. Down in the swamp the ferns grow over 6 feet tall. You wouldn't know till a creature is 30 feet away. Lots of trees that have fallen over make odd scary shapes at distance. Thimble berries grow in the lowland swamp. My swamp wasn't cut and is still old growth. My druidic groove is based on real area Seney Wildlife refuge. With mammoth and dire bear.

    @zorkwhouse8125 3 роки тому

    Pruitt mentioned how creepy real world swamplands etc can be, but then again transferring this environment to the fantasy realm suddenly alligators are not the scariest things you can run into. You mentioned potentially oozes and mummies - and I also think one of the chromatic dragons actually favors swamplands as is habitat (can't remember if its the black or the green dragon, but I think its one of the two) and so if you have a random encounter in a swamp you might be praying to run into something like an alligator, given the alternatives.
    I live in GA, in the southeast US and in the southeast of our state we have the Okefenokee Swamp park that you can visit and they have these things called "swamp tromps" or something along those lines, and its going out with a ranger guide walking through the swamp. Ostensibly on a "trail," but you're climbing over roots and depending on the most recent precipitation you can be walking in water up to your shins in places - and again, like Pruitt said, that can be unnerving enough - but just imagining what all from the D&D world could be crawling/stalking around out there means you could really make this type of environment a major challenge for a party of even experienced PCs from a psychological point of view (giving exhaustion out if they characters don't have optimal forms of transportation or they just don't have a choice and just have to slog it). This could even tie in to the Ravenloft-esque horror focused stuff that D&D is releasing soon - seems like a perfect setting for adventures set beyond the mists.
    Great topic again guys - keep up the good work!

    This terrain type series actually ties in with a homebrew fix for ranger I've been working on.
    Basically the ranger gives up hunters mark, favored foe, favored enemy, and natural explorer. In return they get to pick one of six Mana "colors" at levels 1, 6, and 14. The five colors of MtG, with just about every terrain, creature type, and background / class tied to the color of mana you'd find on a magic card version of that creature or land.
    Plus colorless for constructs, massive cities, elder evils, great old ones, monks, archmages, and astral dreadnoughts.
    While in terrain tied to their mana colors they get all the ribbon benefits of natural explorer, they get their int mod worth of languages spoken by creatures of each of their mana colors, when traversing the terrains or dealing with creatures tied to their colors they have advantage on dex, wis, and int ability checks, and they deal 1d6 extra damage on one attack every turn against creatures of their mana colors.
    It alleviates the "you picked wrong" issues of the phb ranger by giving 6 broad catagories to pick from instead of a dozen minor categories you'll only ever get 2 or 3 of. Also, it frees up concentration and bonus actions for rangers by killing hunters mark and making a baseline equivalent.

    Marshes are different from bogs and fens, as the latter are fed by precipitation and groundwater, resulting in a completely different plant assemblage.

    dm: Rogue, you're palms are sweaty (knees weak, arms are heavy), make your sleight of hand and thieve's tools checks with disadvantage for the day. Bard, sweat pours out of every pore on your body until you start crying sweat. You smell worse than a sunbathing zombie, so all seduction attempts automatically fail until you take a bath. Barbarian, the magical mud rejuvenates your skin washing way 20 years of blood-soaked wrinkles. You feel full of life and ready to adventure, gain an extra hit die for the day.
