I've always wanted to be a wizard so badly that I've tried my best to surround myself with it. Ranging from Harry Potter, Magic, D&D, wizardy, magical systems in video games... all of it was real to me. Do you really want to be a wizard though?
I wish I was a wizard

I like this video style where you talk with someone instead of just talking to a camera. It feels more natural.
Something about Maaz passionetly talking about his character gives me a smile. It's just really sweet

Ironically, by killing the monkey Maaz has given up greater knowledge that the group could have obtained from the monkey tribe.
But it wasnt realy magic knowledge so like ye
He killed sips? 😢
Okay, but what if you haven’t read the books or seen any of the Harry Potter movies?? *Is that bad…? Gulp O_o*
Very bad.
Why are you asking, Jess…
I’ve no idea I grew up reading the books and seeing the movies
Not bad at all. If you decide to someday then cool and if not that's also cool.
Okie I may seem like a very violent person when I say this but yes that is bad and you deserve nothing but pain and misery GO AND READ THE BOOK AND WATCH THE MOVIES ☺️☺️
FUN FACT:
The flying on broomsticks trope comes from old times when "witches" would put I believe was what they called "dragons breath" on the ends of the sticks and uhhhhh
put them in places too where it felt like they where flying
I love how wizard Maaz flies around like Kirby 😆

You know something us good, when you feel like an ad trying to get other people to buy it.
All the more reasons why I love Maaz.. He loves magic and the idea of being a wizard and creating like this magical world, literally just like what I feel. I LOVE magic.
He is so nice and funny. He was one of the many UA-cam creators I look up to.
11:19 As a DM, I ABSOLUTELY love it when players flavor aspects of spells and things in general to their character. To me, it gives me a feeling of the player taking the time to actually THINK about things other than meta-gaming. Then again, I'm a role-playing and character interaction over murderhobo'inh for levels kind of DM.
Loved how Mazz got called out for being a "fake dnd player" lol.
No worries Mazz, I play DND twice a week and even I can't keep the names for spells straight :D

I hear that's how the _Twilight_ series ended. Well, sort of. Waking up didn't undo _everything_ in the book, just the stupid war. But it could have.
I'm so into learning the reasons behind people's avatars and this was just [chef's kiss] _so good._ Love the depth it brings to your character.
Man, if only The Owl House was around when Maaz was growing up. That series is incredible and absolutely about magic.
OMG THE LUFFY AND HIS FRIENDS FROM ONE PEICE OMG YESSSS 9:16 I’m on episode like 300 so this means a lot to me rn
D&Deez NUTS!!!
Can I please?

I dislike this
Maaz if you haven't already watched The Owl House, I can not recommend it enough
It is a super fun show, with a really cool and creative magic system and AMaazing characters
agreed
Agreed
No kinda overrated it has good animation but at the same time it just seems like any other show
@@chocolatechipcookie803 have you watched it? cause it is really good
@@bananatheo3796 yeah and it’s not that good it’s decent but nothing special
This just made me want to see Maaz play dnd, he sounds like he has a knack for creative character design just from the two examples he gave in the video. Of course, *Magic Hand* is a MUST on every single character he makes.
So my dnd charecter is a wizard changeling and I’m considering making partly a sociopath besides his unic interests. Like he would save a frog over a party member, but besides that I was considering having him change his looks through out the campaign, he currently has a mossy green huge wizard hat and a emerald green robe with big brown leather boots. His face is also shadowed with bright glowing eyes
Petition for maaz to create a video game about magic
I have never played D&D, BUT NOW I HAVE TO GIVE IT A TRY! I don't really like a full wizard, but I once invented a blood mage that uses blood and it's properties to fight (like turning the iron in blood into an armor or weapons). It also had an attack called "Red River", that just burns his blood, his veins glow alongside with his eyes and his veins come out as they throw fire like those things that spit flames in the cars and the guy just starts spiting red fire for a long moment.
There is a class in d&d called the Blood Hunter, it uses there blood to power up there weapons and curse people (one of the curse you can use to connect yourself to the enemy like if you are damaged they also take damage) they cannot cast spell but it is still really good
I love how the star is how wizard maaz flies around instead of using a broom. That really is such a cool idea lol 💜
ua-cam.com/video/rgnMwnuUQwM/v-deo.html
Yeah, just how much thought was put into it 😂😊
It was really weird like why a broom of all things to fly on?
It's also from Kirby!
I love the animation with this interview-esque episode! What you did is so magical that i subbed to you!
for me, the funniest part of it was that they translated "mage hand" to "magic hand" in the player's handbook in portuguese.
wait...
animation + funny + podcast..? IMPOSSIBLE! HOW HAVE YOU CREATED THIS MADNESS!
I just can”t wait until a Harry Potter sequel called “Harry Potter after school” and it is just Harry silent sitting on a chair for 4 hours
ua-cam.com/video/rgnMwnuUQwM/v-deo.html
When Maaz mentioned the “magic hand” I imagined he was talking about Bigby’s Hand. Likewise, I cringed a bit when he said a nat 20 does the perfect version of what you want, and that he used the Mage Hand to attack 😅
Yeeaahhh... It was kinda directly contradicted by the rulebook...
But to be fair, it was cool, and major props to the DM.
Maaz’s animation has improved sooooooo much 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 it’s soooooo good I’m crying
ua-cam.com/video/rgnMwnuUQwM/v-deo.html
Even without eyes them staring into your soul at the end was terrifying...
I like the midnight gospel type rant they had at the start where the animation just had them doing various unrelated things while talking
"I'm desperate for situations that put me in social interactions so I can talk to people and make friends"
Me: Feel you my guy.
This wasn't a collab I knew I needed until now - this was absolutely lovely.
Dude, I love spellcasters. When I was younger, I used to love just being a blaster battle mage. But now, I lean towards more utility and crowd control. Blowing people up is fun sure, but I like having magic that gives me fun out-of-the-box solutions to problems. I also really like summoners.
In D&D, Wizard is my favortie class, but I really like Druids and Artificers as well. Sort of the opposite, but I like the idea of being one with nature so much that nature is at your command. As for Artificers, magical inventions are cool and more fantasy settings need them. Also, you can be fantasy Iron Man.
Im ngl the best ppl to pay fir ads are animators. They make a whole cartoon and its so interesting that I usually watch the ad.
The animation and the length is just *chef's kiss*🤌
maaz: * kills the monkey*
also Maaz: I'm a wizard OKAY

Maaz wanting to cast magic straight from their hand when the chad sorcerer is a thing
A wizard who uses their own skin as a spellbook is a neat concept. I'mma steal it.

"Hi, my name is Maaz!"
Me: ETERNAL HAPPINESS
This feels like an episode of The Midnight Gospel where they aren't talking about weird existentialism
AAAAAAH I LOVE D&D SO MUCH I'M SO GLAD YOU TALKED ABOUT THIS IT'S MADE ME SO HAPPY! I WANNA RANT ABOUT SOME OF MY CHARACTERS NOW BUT NOBODY CARES SO IMMA JUST POST THIS COMMENT AND LEAVE
Hey, Maaz, I love how relatable all of this is. Being the kind of kid that loves to go to school cuz you get to learn interesting things and the only thing I want is to learn MORE, that's exactly what I'd want to do with magic.
It's actually the main thing that I write too (I'm sort of a writer, btw, all my worlds are magical or have some kind of magical explanation). But mixing magic with the need to know why things happen and how, that takes the cake. Literally, every time I come across a new magic system I try to learn as much of it as I can and relate it to the natural order of things (cuz often magic comes from nature) and start squeezing my brain thinking of how I can get exactly what I want with exploding the smallest details about the logic in that world and make a whole logical explanation as to how something is possible and then create new techniques and creatures based on that logic, making their origins and powers awesome but not out of the blue, making actual sense. That's the most satisfaction I can get in a magical world (and why I don't like certain stupid series that are supposed to be just dumb fun, but I can't enjoy it cuz there's no logic or mind blowing system to take as knowledge).
I just wish I actually started playing games like DND with friends or online to get the feeling like I'm actually there, but I always get sucked back into writing, so no surprises there. I prefer to be the DM giving the story the rules and direction so that is the best possible. Altho I don't know how to play DnD and I don't know the rules, so...
One of the best parts about dnd is the texture and re-flavoring when it comes to different things. My all-time favorite campaign is this campaign called one piece dnd. We’re it still Dnd but everything is change to match the world of one piece it’s honestly incredible
ua-cam.com/video/sEDuZOEwtio/v-deo.html
I’ve been on a whole DnD binge on Arcadum, so this video is rather timely given my current state of mind.
9:15 Don't think I didn't see Luffy's , Sabo's and Ace's hats on that shelf !
I SAW THE FLAG AND I AM NOW VERY DETIRMINED!!! THANK YOU!!!
4:15 Maaz, I cant ignore you completely guessing wrong. You had 1 out of 4 options to choose from and 3 of them are technically the right answers.... You chose the only wrong answer :0
I’m actually playing a halfling wizard now in my first full campaign who values knowledge over most anything else.

@@deannaparr9448 Hello there, Deanna! The name's Moony! Nice to meet you! :)
The first time I took the test I got Hufflepuff but the second time I got RavenClaw. I believe I am a RavenClaw because I would want to explore the castle. Like I would want to know EVERYTHING about wizardry, like if the Harry and his friends explored the castle and got to know everything about it their challenges would be so easy.
As a Harry Potter fanatic, this is amazing.

5:51
Oh god is that a James doll?
Aaaah! I can't stand it! This is just WAY too pure and wholesome for its own good!!!
A little late to the game but I did start dnd very recently. Too many people I know play it and so I gave in and did the research. Here’s the thing, I knew I was going to like it. I love lore, I love storytelling, I love creating worlds and characters and I love the process of creating things with other people. I also love research (no I was never a ravenclaw first but I’m told that was probably my secondary house if I had a hat stall. I’m slytherin first if that says anything). So yeah, I started dnd very recently. One of the first characters I made was of the wizard class. I didn’t quite like how the mechanics played so I paired it up into a double class and now they are a wizard/monk. I wanted both so I made both (I’ll be honest, I wanted mystic and then found out they removed it from the game because it was too confusing and broken so these two classes were my second choice). Wizards are pretty awesome. I did the same motivation, sorta, for my character. They are the head librarian of their hometown and travel around to find more knowledge to fill that library both to expand the knowledge of their community and for themselves. They are more a neutral good than true neutral but still, I get where your character is coming from for the monkey thing. That situation sounds hilarious in all honesty.
Maaz: I know that it's definitely not one of the rules.
Dnd: rule number 0 is the rules are guidelines and the dm can make the rules
He realy took that whole knowledge is power to a whole different level
Hey Maaz, if you enjoy anything with magic I would recommend The Owl House, it’s a very good show that features a lot of magic, a school, and it makes fun of Harry Potter on several occasions
Also in case your wondering if it’s a kids show, because it’s made by Disney, it isn’t, in one episode they heavily imply that there’s drugs in some ice cream, out of context that sounds really bad
Oh dude when Luz spit facts about how unfair and ridiculous magic games r I laughed my ass off.

Maaz as a wizard thats awesome :>
I once got griffindor and the other time ravenclaw. I'm probably ravenclaw though 😂 When Maaz said ravenclaw I was like "YESSS"
ua-cam.com/video/rgnMwnuUQwM/v-deo.html
It's fun that Maaz is so invested into magic and his Wizard OC lore, but he's still officially a Doctor. Thumbs up only👍
In reference to 11:10, my ranger in my current campaign is a Samurai inspired character. All his spells are casted with "calligraphy" as in he draws the symbols in the air with his finger
Get this paradox:
If i outsmarted my way into slytheren would i be slytheren or ravenclaw ?
If i succeeded and got in slytheren then i should be in ravenclaw but if i failed and didn't enter slytheren then i shouldn't be in ravenclaw
( Presuming i dont have preferences )
@@Malek_Jlelaty uh-
I never realised how much in common I have with Maaz.. it's kinda scary 😂😂👀
I was really into the HP books...I was 6 when I read the first book, and I really super-fixated on the lore and the audiobooks. Jim Dale's narration and voice-acting? sublime. I still really look up to that level of talent and passion for VO. and it definitely instilled a lifelong craving for magic
...and I've made my peace with the series itself and moved on. other stories have come along which I'm much more passionate about, stories with writing I can say is good without any caveats, and from writers who...well. aren't going to go on twitter with Trans Bathroom Opinions
I wish I could like this comment more than once, because it’s pretty much exactly my thoughts on the whole Harry Potter thing.
Someone in my campaign in perfect detail did the spray bottle lighter thing for burning hands, and now I’m gonna go question them if they watched this video.
I literally watched this video a few hours before starting Harry Potter, the day this came out.
1:53 Maz that's alchemy
Erm alchemy is actually the science of turning other elements and materials into gold, not putting magical spices into a cauldron of green fluid to form tentacles 🤓🤓🧪🦑
