Make a video on asuras ❤
Would it be possible for you to add another video to this series discussing the history of orcs and goblinoids? I am really enjoying the series and would like it to go a little longer
Hand over the maps, Rhexx, we need them, we neeeeeeed them.
Those Guys from Calimport must have seriously pissed of the Goddess of Luck somewhere :D
Unlike the two unreasonably rude dudes to initially reply here, I'm well aware/understanding of your preference of uploads half this size &, although I immensely enjoyed this hour-long lecture from you (our lord of lore) I just wanna thank you for all you do. 🙌
The history of Faerun sounds like it had a very aggressive DM. "Oh yeah? You think your tough?! How about an army of BEHOLDERS! How about that?!"
"B-but I thought you said beholders were solit-"
"ARMY!"
Haha yes, that sounded pretty stupid, like a teenager that just wanted to make a hard encounter :D
@@anderslundtoft2315hate him or not, you must admit, an army of beholders is a pretty hard encounter
@@darkmatter9643depends on the edition, in Baulders Gate 2 there is a room full of Beholders and the smaller ones, cant think of the name. If you explored enough you could find a cloak of Reflection earlier on in the game, Pretty much put that on a character and walk in the room and a few seconds later a few hundred thousand experience is yours. All you did was walk in with that Cloak on.
@@jamesrowell901that’s a video game… in the lore and on tabletop you ain’t doing ntn
Humans: longer lived than kobolds but more fertile than elves and dwarves. The goldie-locks race
relative shortest life spam of all powerfull races, but embrace the challenge of existance, the perfect combo.
When you live long reproduction comes to a stand still and that also leads to complacency. Humans can't be complacent
A Kobold who dies of old age is older on average than a human who dies of old age.
@@DahLekKnightYeah, I just watched rhexx'es vid. They do outlive humans by a good couple decades
Kobolds live longer and are more fertile.
As someone who just got into video editing I gotta say, HUUUGE respect for making all of these half hour to hour long vids back to back, it's sooo hard to keep everything concise and the edit it all afterwards so like, you have my respect sir
Said exactly what I thought.
He's been doing it a while. Keep going you'll get there too one day!
For real! I am no editor or anything but I am constantly impressed by all these different long form video essay channels
Calimshan trying not to burn every 100 years: impossible
I find it crazy that the orcs we see in the various monster manuals for 5e are effectively of the incorrect type of orc on the complete opposite end of the continent that don't even organize in big enough numbers to do much of anything warranting an adventure around.
Now imagine the story of the Verdan.
That's because the setting of the game isn't very important to D&D as a game. None of this stuff in the video is the core rulebooks, what matters in D&D is the adventure. None of the setting matters, it's just there to give some context to your adventure.
If you mean that they use the grey orcs of the former kingdom of Vastar which are now mostly nomadic tribes, that is partly correct. However, even those orc clans could get a tough leader from time to time to unite a few clans and invade or raid the human kingdoms of the Earthspur mountains and the Dalelands.
All of the disasters that hit Calimshan was just the Dev's way of balancing the overpowered start they were given by accident. They saw it as the only way to keep them from becoming too overpowered.
Calimshan; "We shall rule the world!"
The powers that be; "Yeah. . . we're gonna have to do something about that."
Ah, now we hit the point in time in which 90 percent of everything relevant happens.
One thing that I really, really like about ancient d&d history is the fact that the gods sound completely made up.
- Creation myth/natural disasters? The gods battled it out with the primordials.
- The orcs conque and pillage and have numbers and powerful magic on their side? Oh wow, their gods must be really powerful.
- The elves magically conure a piece of land? Such impressive magic we wove, the gods themselves must have assisted us!
- The drow are basically excommunicated from elf society with an extremely cruel curse? Corellon willed it, our patriarch denounces you!
- The dwarves are cloning themselves and killing each other in the stupidest civil war? Oh, have our gods abandoned us?
- The Mulan have been enslaved? Oh, the Imaskari must have woven a powerful spell to abjure their gods!
- They finally find the strength to overthrow their slavers after hundreds of years? Their gods must have finally reached them!
I've written a whole book about FR deities, and now I think that never having confirmation of whether they are actually real would have been way more interesting.
Hard disagree on that last statement, if no other reason than The Imascari High Artificer armed with 7 of the most powerful artifacts ever made rode out on the back of a red dragon to fight The Egyptian God-King Horus manifested upon upon Toril.
You can't convince me a world where that Doesn't happen is in any way more interesting, it's just fundamentally too cool.
If you enjoy that sort of worldbuilding, you would probably love Eberron, the superior 5e setting.
@@JoelDowdell Eberron is older than 5e, much older.
This is like advertising the great old ones as a "new" religion.
@@blackjoker2345 Yes, I was not claiming that it was a setting that originated from/during 5e. I meant to convey that it was a setting with actual official material for 5e games.
I’ve been loving this series glad You’re still making such great videos
Oh man, I really hope to get videos on present era. This series has been the most fulfilling explanation of the lore surrounding the BG3. Before starting BG3 and stopping it just to read up on the background of the game and lore surrounding it (BG1, BG2, forgotten realms and etc.). I had no clue about Ice wind dale, Neverwinter nights, DnD and BG relationship and how big the lore is surrounding these games. You sir have earned yourself a sub, I really hope that at some point in future the present era is going to get covered.
Dragons and Nine hells? Sign me up! But seriously don't push yourself too hard, we will always appreciate your work.
Cormyr deserves a standalone video - there were a lot of important pre-shadowplague events and adventures.
This is why I always rep my humans in games. Humans for all our flaws are strong, adaptable, and motivated.
thank you for working so hard on your videos , I love them .
Thanks for doing the insane amount of research required to put this video together!
In 2e, it's all in one book!
Officially it was a group of Wood Elves from the Wealdath who killed the two Red Dragons in Tethyr. Then they humans started taking over the region and the only reason the Wealdath Elves left their forest to kill the Red Dragons was because the Red Dragons entered the forest which they shouldn't have.
Wealdath Elves are awesome. I read up on this area for my current campaign. It hasn't been touched in a long time but there is a really great adventure from 1e or 2e iirc based out of Velen.
I greatly appreciated this series if only for actually mentioning gnomes more than the vast majority of history content does
Every time I get a notification that Mr . Rhexx has put a video up. I get excited.
This was awesome brother. So glad for your dedication to inform us and give us information to work with.
The rise and fall of the Shadow Netherese Empire would make an interesting topic for the modern setting if you ever revisit history.
Getting ready to use this in a game and i was just going to home brew it. Much rather have some juicy details though.
@@cloviepounders6703 my current campaign is set in the Dale lands about 7 years after the war.
@MrRhexx, you really do provide an absolute service to the community of DnD and we truly do appreciate all your work.
1 hour? Gonna enjoy this. Thanks for the great work!!
This is the perfect video to listen to right before bed.
WOOO got this notification and abandoned my other video to hop over here. Always happy for more lore!
😂me too
A butterfly flaps its wings
Kalimport : burns
Calimport: "we didn't start the fire! The world's been burning since the world's been turning"
This series was great! Loved every bit of it. Once you've been able to mix things up with the other videos you mentioned I truly hope you'll feel the urge to do the last bit to catch us up to the present year. Hey, maybe along with the release of 6e - whenever that will be - and/or some of the adventures that will follow? Just a suggestion, I can totally see the amount of research that goes into these types of videos!
I just want to say thank you for all of this hard work you did to put these together. I'm gonna be playing Lost Mines with a group of players that are unfamiliar with the Forgotten Realms. Having a good source that I can point them to without going wikidiving for hours and getting lost is incredibly helpful!
I know that at my table, you'll get at least four more views on this. Also, I now want to extend the adventure to Calimshan now so they can help save this place from whatever curse causes all of these disasters to wreak havoc on them - its like that scene in Hercules where they ask, "Was the earthquake before the flood or after?"
Honestly, this video isn't really going to help your group get into character much because D&D is focused on the current adventure, the setting as a whole has little to nothing to do with any given session.
Your dragon series was my favorite but I couldn't not watch these videos because everything about your content is so amazing.
I love your work MrRhexx, I have been playing D&D since the late 90's and I think I have learned more about the various settings (Other than Planescape and in particular, Darksun hint hint!) from your videos than all the gaming I did in that time.
Keep up the greatwork, you are appreciated!
Again, so much information there. I just do not know how you can gather so much. You must have a huge library. Thank you for sharing this beloved history of Forgotten Realms!!!
Standing ovations, this you made such a great series of videos and you deserve the views, the likes, the praises and much more.
I'll be eagerly waiting for the Nine hells video and the Tchazzar video
22:19 Can we just take a moment to appreciate that calimshim fight against *armies of beholders* and *won?*
I saw a Tarrasque before clicking, I expect a Tarrasque to be involved. edits: not dissapointed, KAIJU WAR!
Also, Calimshan is unlucky as hell!
As extensive as this video series has been the work was very much appreciated.
A human video, finally the DM gives us what we want
Hey bro, I appreciate you so much for doing this series. It was probably the most entertaining and best presented history of the Forgotten Realms that I've ever seen. I really really enjoyed this and want to thank you for doing this.
The idea of a beholder society is a weird idea to me... They are waaaaay too paranoid to trust eachother for any length of time!
That paranoia works really well to, perversely, get them to agree to meet and even work together. FOMO. If your party, or your party's network, is strong enough... well, surely the beholder enemies would accept an invitation?? The offer of extra power is too good, can't leave it to chance that other beholders would show up and they wouldn't! But, if left to their own devices and their default attitudes... yeah. They would totally either self-isolate or else murder each other now.
Another Rhexx's video, hell yeah! Let's go!
What if you start a series about classes. What they didn't tell us of each one. You could go through their Ingame history and lore of characters related to those classes.
Kinda sad how much the classes have changed
I’ve tried to find monk lore on UA-cam and there’s basically none
I always get a big smile on my face when I see you upload a video. Keep up the fantastic work. Love you contact.
Maybe major events in the realms within and between each edition would be a good series? That would actually be a great help if someone ever decides to run an older edition
TY so much for creating these videos as they help a lot new people that want to get into D&D and wanna know about the lore of this world. Your efforts in making these history videos is well appreciated and i wish you good health and prosperity!
It would also be great if you could organize these history lore videos in a separate playlist linked in each video for people that want to follow the whole series. Since the video titles are not numbered this would help a lot.
Again, thank you sincerely for all the work you do in bringing the stories of D&D in a video format and for all the beautiful images, music and editing that you do in these videos! I must admit i swiped a lot of these images to create a nice D&D art folder for my monitor wallpaper. :)
Good luck on the dice rolls and may the gods smile upon your endeavours.
Subscribed thanks to this video. I'm planning a campaign in and around the Sea of Fallen Stars and I've taken 8 pages of historical notes from this video series. You're a godsend
Very weird coming from 3ed, where the Dalelands, Cormyr and Sembia is the center and most detailed area of the Forgotten Realms, to being told that in 5ed, not much is detailed away from the Sword Coast. "Also there was the kingdom of Cormyr, but there isn't much to say about it"
I would assume he means there's not much to say about Cormyr in the time period he's covering.
I really liked this series. I'm glad you put in the effort. I think this will be an "evergreen" set of videos for your channel. Thanks!!
I hope Rhexx gets back to monster lore/secrets soon though I would settle for lore on forgotten realms locations beyond the sword coast like Karatur and the like
Sick series of video, it was awesome !!
Descent into Avernus being my all time favorite adventure, i'm really excited for future video about the Nine Hells !
I enjoy these lore videos. Keep up the good work. Can't wait for more!
We do know quite a lot about the western continent. In 200/2001 when WotC bought D&D from TSR they merged several of the minor worlds into FR. The continent to the west contains the campaign setting of Maztica, and the lands to the south contain Al-Qadim. All the 2n E data was compiled on the FR interactive atlas.
Appreciate the effort that went into all of this. Its very interesting having the tl;dr of all of these huge historical events that were mentioned in previous videos. You do great work 👍
Dude I loved all these videos! Very well done! But nothing to say about Cormyr!?!?! Cmon! Azoun led the armies of the entire realms against the tuigan horde! That is something
A loresome series, love it. Please do not stop - continue up to the very 1496 DR, at least covering the major plot points and adventures summaries!
Thank you for all the research and work you put into this series!
This video was amazing! Really, thank you for all the work you've put into this!
I'll consult your videos for years and years to get some campaign ideas.
Thank you for producing such informative videos... I listen to you often while I write my homebrew.
Humans are always my favorite go-to race in D&D 5e.
Thank you for all of you lore videos, I enjoy every one!
Thank you for all the hard work and dedication. If you ever put this all in one book buddy that would be the best. Until then, keep them dice rolling.
I love the chultan history with Ubtao, one of my favourite characters came from there
Would love to see a video about the Time of Troubles once you've taking a break from dnd lore, great videos loved the whole series ❤
Great video MrRhexx! Keep up the good work
yessss I'm eager to watch the videos about the rest of the upper planes. that was fascinating.
This alone can make an animated TV show that is crazy.
This was an incredible undertaking kudos Rhexx you did really really good
Thank you for this hard work, it was amazing to listen too after a long hard day. And got me all exited about certain places that were covered in this whole series.
This series is awesome, I would like a series on each of the Elder Evils or Ancient Brethren, both those guys are always forgotten lol
"Killed a Tarrasque in one punch"
That is some insane power
Calimshan to Gods: "Is that all you got? Come on! What is next? Beholders riding plagued dragons? Army of orc liches? Giant - yuan ti alliance? Bring them all on! We will win...and burn our own cities 3 times in process! We can do this for whole millennia!"
Finally something I can relate to
Calimshan: I didn't hear no bell!.
I’m amazed that some people were able to keep up with all the info.. I’m a forgotten realms nerd myself but damn 😑😑😑
Are OROGS/deep orc extinct in 5e? In 3.5 they were truly awesome.
No one ever talks about the human side, good job
Also, the hell
Calimsham's history is basically my little dark age in loop
I HAVE been waiting for this ❤️ so glad its an hour longer banger
Honestly learning about the difference lairs of hell like we learned about mount celestia would be amazing!
So there is a Demon Lord (Eltab) on the material plane that's been there for more than 1500 years and is still arround ?
Paladin : Time for a crusade boys !
Warlock : It's free real estate.
His info on Eltab is missing the last updates; Eltab is banished to abyss in one of the latest 3.5 ed. Harper novels by Zsass Tam and a human female rogue. And Eltabbar turned to a big lava pit during the fight.
@@odenat3701 Book name ?
@@norfemignissius4936 Crimson Gold - writer is Voronica Whitney-Robinson. It is quite a good story. Wiki also say that Eltab is not banished to the Abyss but to the Impiltur so MrRhexx could be right after all and we could need a crusade 😁
22:24 "The first plague, which alone, kills nearly half of Calimport slaves, and forces the Pasha and nobility to hide in their homes for over two years." You mean 2020?
Man you're great, I'm currently studying from your videos
Thank you gain for a great vid. When you Recharge I do hope you will do a set on the transition from each edition as a follow up to the time lines.
I absolutely love this whole series!!!!!!! THANK YOU MR. REXX!!!!!!!
Can’t wait for the next dragon video excited to see what comes next
Enjoyed this so much fine sir. Looking forward to the planes. We appreciate all your hard work here and in the kickstarter
I want to point out how you casually glossed over the incredibly paranoid Beholder Kingdom just casually forming to invade people; despite most Beholders being isolationists.
I'm curious too just how a Beholder Kingdom could exist given their own nature seems to preclude any such massive cooperation.
Love you decided to come back to do some DnD lore the community would be lesser without
Loved the vid. I gotta say though Calimport (however you spell it) sounds hella cursed or something
Calimport just couldn't catch a break man
Rhexx, well done. Thanks!
I really like listing to this series in the forgotten realm. Thank you for making it!!!!👏👏👏
day 13 of whishing for a video about psionics: how it works exactly? how it differs from magic?Does it affects the Weave whatsoever? and many more questions and enlightment I so seek about a forgotten and apparently filled with many mixed information in the lore that only may almighty MrRhexx elucidat
20:08 now known today is California.
This has been your cringe joke for the day.
A plague forced them to hide in their homes for 2 years... sounds familiar. 22:20
the beloved crazy rabbit hole of farun history.
so, what you're saying is that Cormanthyr is pretty great
Love love love this series. Thank you so much!
Thank you for the series!
I love historical lore! Thamks mr rhexx
8:24 Hold UP! They one-punched a Tarrasque?! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯Saitama intensifies
