Last night I dreamed I was at a 10th story restaurant in some depressing town like pitsburg. The waiter came up to my table and his face looked like a normal face with the features and colors you'd expect. But his skin was a little transparent and as the waiter was standing very close to me I could just barely make out the larva underneath his face. "So, do you want passtaa?" "I'll take the pasta [just leave me alone]. In this dream I was sitting right across a former coworker of mine. The waiter was 2 feet away from me and 6 feet away from my friend so he couldn't see that the waiter had larvae underneath his pale complexion. I told my coworker I had to go to the bathroom. Immediately start running down 10 stories of worth of stairs as fast as i can. I do not want to eat pasta cooked and served by two larva mage. The most horrifying part of the dream was that my coworker who was sitting right across me wouldn't believe me if I told him the reason I'm leaving was because under close inspection the waiter looked like a larva mage underneath that skin.
I love how the D&D community is just so together nowadays. A homebrew pack, made by people like this guy, with an animated trailer made by JoCat, and is sponsoring Critical Role. It's just wholesome and I love it.
Tell your players to each select a different campaign setting and make a character from it... anything that the campaign setting can offer is available for the character's creation. Then start the campaign by having all of them wake up in a field surrounded by the burning corpses of other adventurers who, like them, had been violently ripped from their reality by whatever cosmic fuckery brought them all together.
I feel like there should be a tavern called "the Regal Ruins" that is both a were-rat / slime filled sewer tavern and a memorial for Sam's constitution.
@@danielwitt1793 one surprisingly great resource is the 4th edition listings for star spawn, which are a collection of about six legendary embodiments of specific stars themselves.
I’m just imagining the drink Sam drank is in death’s tavern that either instantly revives you makes feel the pain of a bad afterlife for a thousand years even if you go somewhere good
@@weezact7 particle literally means "small part". They can be bigger, like a particle of dust, or subatomic, like an electron. A photon is a particle of light. There's quarks, and bossons and tachyons(?) All of those are particles
I have to admit, a call of cthulu style story where you can actually fight back sounds interesting. Cultists trying to bring in an elder evil god, insanity issues, mythical monsters, a mystery to figure out whats going on and how to stop it. I would really lean into the whole reality altering aspect of things where its hard to tell if you are going crazy, if the walls really just did that, or both.
See, now, to me, that sounds just like any other generic fantasy story. If you have a story centering around Cthlulu monsters where you can fight back...that's just D&D, but with a few more tentacles. Which is not an inherently bad thing, but it feels like it sort of removes one of the cornerstones of what makes Lovecraftian horrors horrible. That being said, ole' Howie himself does have some pieces where his monsters are not only able to be fought, but are defeated by humans. This usually comes with significant losses because the protagonists are almost NEVER properly prepared and the creatures are almost always vastly more powerful than a human. Lovecraft's writing emphasized that NOTHING in the universe is inherently special, blessed, or more important than anything else, though, so the humies do win sometimes. Even in Call of Cthulu itself, the humans, arguably, win cause the guy drives a big steam ship through Cthulu's belly. Which doesn't KILL it, but it does make it decide to go back and sleep some more. Unless you mean the CoC roleplaying game, because you can fight back in that one. How effective it is depends on your GM, but shotguns are usually a good choice.
@@weezact7 Yeah I was talking the CoC tabletop game. Only with the more classic D&D twist that you actually CAN fight back (That +1 axe should help, no shotguns here) But the effects of the normal game are still in effect. It probably would take some tweaking to find a good balance between champions of the realm and detective joe blow from chicago and how well they can handle the issues that pop up, but I think a good dm could manage to balance it and make it fun while keeping the original tone in place. Like dont allow for direct confrontation with the evil elder great outsider blah de bloo. Its more about figuring out the cultist plan and putting a stop to it before it can happen. Only the party is more likely to fight the various abominations than run gibbering in terror. :p
I think the Star Spawn are like what other dimensions might look like, very Twilight Zone-ish. The rules of your dimension don't apply, and things like matter, thought, and dream might be interchangeable in the chaotic world of the Star Spawn, where the only rule is that the rules are always changing.
In one of my campaigns the bbeg was just the titan of change. it wasn't evil, it just made shit go sideways. sometimes literally. there was a lot of gravity shifting and wild magic rolls. it was fun
Oh almighty algorithm I besiege you, may others comment on this video, like it and show it to more people, thus exposing and supporting what I like such that I might enjoy even more content. Amen.
The reason why their is such a large response to "The Seeker's Guide to Twisted Taverns" is not just because people really like the idea and concept.... but because you guys did "Stibbles Codex and Companions" so well. People want to support that kind of good work. This means that your "publishers" are really happy with your past work and willing to support your further :-) You deserve this. Good work.
The winds of the interweb are fickle, though. Regardless of how successful your previous works are, there's always the chance that there will be no support at all. So, each thing DOES have to have merits to stand on its own. At least, until you've made enough books (or movies, or games) to garner a fanbase that will just buy anything you publish. But since you don't have a marketing team, I don't think that's likely to happen any time soon. SO, really circuitous way of saying it, but: He's right. That idea must have been good after all to get that much funding and that's great for him! It's nice to see people making stuff and it doing well. Gives me hope for my own future plans :P
Ho? You're approaching me, instead of running away you're coming closer? How ungrateful... even after your grandfather gave his life to show you the secrets of 「The World」...
Man, I was literally just looking at Star Spawn in Mordenkainen’s and wondering if I could find more info about them. Found something made less than a week ago, perfect timing.
Congerats on the Kickstarter. The Star Spawn sound like the lore from Bloodborne. "Let's ask questions we shouldn't have answered and wake up gods we DEFINITELY shouldn't!"
Wait a minute... I think you might be onto something. After all, unaligned is kinda the undefined of the alignment chart and what's a better descriptor of the Far Realm than undefined? Now I'mma go forget this forbidden knowledge before I turn into an allip.
When I was watching Critical Role and Sam brought up the Seeker's Guide I nearly shit myself, that was so cool getting to see Critical Role of all things advertise the book! Super excited for you man!
Highly worth noting the synergy between all the Star Spawns abilities. An army of Grues are the perfect meat shields because the party has gotta get rid of them first if they don't want all the disadvantage, but the Hulk is out there time punching everyone while the Seer hits the Hulk with psychic attacks to ping off at everyone. It's truly terrifying.
I love all of your videos. As a DM of 6 years i find inspiration from you while my brain has been turning in to pudding after running so many games back to back
In regards to their thought process. I remember some time ago, I read the Alan Moore comic Neonomicon. Where they start discussing "negative conceptual space" Sure, we have a concept about hands, but there is also the inverse, the concept of 'not-hands'. Elder beings tend to think and operate in negative conceptual space thought.
your star spawn ide is pretty much a spot on idea of the plot for certain books and monsters in the monster hunter series by Larry correia, particularly the memoirs books and a couple in the main series that i don't want to spoil.
I'd love to see Worm-That-Walks characters, but made out of other invertebrates. Like one made out of spiders and clothed in shrouds of webbing, one made out of butterflies acting fabulous, one made out of bobbit worms which can bury itself and attack from underneath, ect.
My idea for the later levels in my campaign was a massive star spawn invasion across planes. I had the image in my head of being in the elven afterlife plane and watching Corellon hit and swarmed with invasive star spawn worm parasites. And the party fighting in several different planes, reuniting with allies and enemies long past to fight a planar war
This is like.... the 5th Time Runesmith has made a video on the EXACT D&D subject that I've been looking into. I've been looking at the starspawn for a potential BBEG in my campaign and now we get this!
Thanks for putting this up. Just started a new campaign where a star spawn cult is masquerading as a demon cult masquerading as a theives guild masquerading as a transport guild
these were called foul spawn back in 4e, and are all pretty much the same as they were in 4e, just in 5e now, except for worm guy, who used to be called a larva mage. i would also be interested in seeing you cover the entirely separate group known as star spawn from 4e, but i know most of your stuff is 5e lore, so i totally understand if you don't.
congrats on the success for the taverns. Never heard of most of these star spawn beforehand other than the worm dude. Oh, tavern idea, the condors roost. Located on the under or side of a cliff near raptors of the area it has invisibility effecting the walls to the canyon so to see outside without being a danger.
I've been doing deep dives into D&D lore, right now I'm on the far realm and the Elder Evils, and OH BOY am I excited for that video. Reveal to me the secrets of the Blood Queen
I love the star spawn so much I plan to use a tie between them and Atropos the world born dead in my homebrew campaign later on and I can’t wait to use these things against them more
Star spawn and Core Spawn make for a good combination of monsters that you can easily challenge your players with no matter the level. I nearly killed a party of level 20 characters with a star spawn seer and hulk and the Core Spawn worm is a paladin’s worst nightmare
It'd be cool to have a campaign with The Seeker as an antagonist, not as a villain, but she'd most likely be responsible for a bunch of stuff happening to the party inadvertently. Also since I'd need to try to get an Annapantsu impression at least somewhat right.
It feels like the script to this video was whispered into Logan's brain by things from Far Realms themselves -- it made very little sense and at the same time, was absolutely great and understandable.
6:25 You know what would be the best plottwist for a campain like that? If it turns out that the entity the cultists summon was just a small child or just a person from an alternate reality, which they have to then either kill or spare to make it more of a moral dilemma than an expected fighting sequence
Logan: What’s an elder evil? Find out in the next video!
Me: ah, so he was the evil all along. I understand now
Isn't the real elder evil the friends we made along the way?

Damn, an afterlife tavern? This man knows no bounds
I can easily see The Bartender of said Tavern taking a liking to an adventuring party, and when one of them dies, they go to Tavern of the Afterlife, and maybe The Bartender offers them a second chance of life. The catch is that once they retire from adventuring, they must become a bartender themselves.
If they die after retiring without becoming a bartender, they are doomed to an eternity of serving under The Bartender in the Tavern of the Afterlife.

It feels like the script to this video was whispered into Logan's brain by things from Far Realms themselves -- it made very little sense and at the same time, was absolutely great and understandable.
Literally writing a game with these guys as villains. Thanks 👍

You know what would be the best plottwist for a campain like that?
If it turns out that the entity the cultists summon was just a small child or just a person from an alternate reality, which they have to then either kill or spare to make it more of a moral dilemma than an expected fighting sequence
Eldermancy is my favorite Great Old One and Runesmith is my favorite Goolock
