I've bounced from group to group a lot when it came to DnD, not really managing to grab my friend's interest until much later in time. However when I finally sat down and played with my best friends, the people who I knew back to front, suddenly the whole system clicked for us and we made something perfect. I know it can be hard to find people who mesh with you, and are into DnD and tabletop roleplaying games. But I assure you that there's nothin better than meeting people who gel with you, or are on the same wavelength
Amen to that.
It's hard to find people who you can really click with, but when you do, it's good. I've always wanted to build a world based on the player's characters, where they each make a character with extensive backstory, and then I build a world that brings them all together.
Best thing in that book is the concept of the Warmage. I've always had an idea for it, but they nailed it.
For a character whose entire motivation is to "fight evil", OP spends a LOT of time allying with necromancers, demons, and Vecna worshippers.
As long as they aren't actively "doing evil" in his presence, he has no reason to not ally with them.
@@ForeverDegenerate bruh
Evil is relative
@@thezerowulf507 I mean things like necromancy are shady but can be used for good while being creepy. Adds some complexity a necromancer that knows they'll be hated but helps anyway. Demons can be interesting. Be kinda like Lucy from disenchantment. Devious but loyal (mostly) to his friends and willing to fight for the greater good if they are.
So worshiping an evil god and summoning undeads are not evil actions? I really have to overread something in the books...
I got so excited when he said dragonborn paladin, my first character is also a dragonborn paladin, silver 8 ft tall, wields a massive glaive and just completely overwhelmed with guilt, depression and indecision to the point of hilarity, his entire quest is a search for something to provide meaning after losing faith. He's so amusing to play because his entire driving force is a search for meaning in a search for meaning and he'll randomly just wax paradoxically to himself and just be suddenly unavailable as he tumbles down the rabbit hole of his own making. What a great guy lmao
Pretty impressive- give that DM a gold plated DM Screen!
ah yes, 'cause there's nothing more glorious than running away from a fight because you're confused, & then retiring.
My dm is doing this now! Our original group split up, and with each character of our 5 man group goes on their own and gets their own groups, it’s been a lot of fun!
Its nice to see positive stories and not all the negative ones you seem to perfur to tell.
Drama is interesting
Absolutely. While tales of edgelord players or control-freak DMs etc. can be funny, it is only in small amounts. Positive experiences like this one are fun as well, but not cringe-y.
I agree, the Astoshan stories, the lizardfolk becoming a demigod one, the cleric that forges his order and his own armor. Those stories were invaluable.
2:16 worshiping your past self? I’d accuse one of narcissism but I guess that only counts if you’re aware of who you were before. Ahem YIRBEL LIVES PH FOR GOODNESS SAKE THE NEW FONT DOESN’T WORK! I WAS GETTING EXCITED
Roll for initiative!
I've never played any ttrpg. My middle age mom has expressed a slight interest, if there is one she and her friends could play in the "Bonanza" universe. Is there a fairly simple RPG with an old west setting?
Savage Worlds is fairly simple. And one of the settings (Deadlands) is a Horror-Western, which could easily be played as a straight Western.
Deadlands reloaded
Mud, Blood, and Glory is a game my friend designed and is pretty simple to pick up. It's a d6 based system too which may help for newer ttrpg players.
find an old copy of boot hill
Genesys might be a good system for new players
Fun fact, Philter of Love doesn't require a saving throw before taking effect, so even a creature that has Legendary Resistances can't resist it
Pretty sure dragons are immune to charm
@@michaelmcgee5478 You'd think so, but they're not. Not in 5th edition at least =P
@@backonlazer791 weird. They nerfed everything in 5e it seems
So it really is canonically possible to seduce a dragon. I wouldn't have guessed.
@@StinkerTheFirst It only causes romantic feelings if the drinker is into the type of person they see (race and gender), but considering how many things are known to be able to make half-dragons I wouldn't be surprised if it does =D
My group is getting going with a new campaign but the last one…WHEW. I told my DM that i wanted to go a dunamancy spellcaster but was not interested in wizard. We narrowed it down to homebrewing a gravity based sorcerer. The balancing was fine until i got my higher level spell slots as most of what i was doing was cc and forced movement from midrange to keep things off the long range damages and healers. It got wild when i realized later on, “hey, 2 disintegrates in a single turn is a little busted”. Lets just say i only got to “use” my 9th level slots 3 times and one was “you can toss your black hole on the tent with the generals, or the hundreds of tents that just so happen to fit within its range perfectly”. Just happy that i was able to reign in the most busted portions to let everyone have a turn in the limelight
Last time I was early enough to a post to see single digits in the comments I was looking at my own Facebook page. Great video, great story.
Earliest I've ever got to one of your videos 😂 love it, keep up the good work!
Yes more videos from the channel!!
"more thoughout and important to me personally" and then "08/15 Dragonborn Paladin whos goal is to slay evil and get glory"... yeah very thoughtout... oh and teaming up with necromancers (with undead minions) and a worshiper of THE evil god (Vecna).... yeah totally legit...
How does one go about finding groups to play dnd with, because i've wanted to get back into it but im at college now and dont have my normal group near by.
This sounds like a brilliant DM
I've done this before but with the ultimate butt hurt time-travel
superb content All Things DnD. I crushed that thumbs up on your video. Continue to keep up the awesome work.
"My DM is the greatest! he had us enter a dungeon, slay some monsters and a dragon to save someone, then went and discovered a secret cult which we defeated!"
AKA every DnD campaign
How can anyone follow this? It's so long and convoluted.
Yeah, it takes a bit of attention to keep everything straight. I had to rewind a couple times. I think the story-teller point is that the DM was able to keep everything straight over a long period of time, and the other players weren't confused. The storyteller realized that he was figuratively peeking though a keyhole towards a rich and extensive storyline.
Dragon fights are great
Wow. This is truly amazing.
i wonder what percent of these "stories" are just that, fictional events that never happened(probably in a campaign that never existed)
I realised I haven't been seeing any of your videos for a while and found out UA-cam unsubscribed me.
Sounds like civil war lol
oh my gawd 0.0
It's really hard without subtitles...
About Valda's
I'm gonna try a Warlock Geppettin Bisque (porcelain doll) with a demon overlord as my patron, basically reenacting Annabelle from "The Conjuring" XDD
I happen to own the Warden PDF (I bought it of course)
Paladin: Civil War
Ghost Bomber.
Definitely
The "Boo-boomer"!
Suicide bomber that came back to do it some more!
An add-on for pen & paper RPGs seems very odd to me. I mean, isn't the great thing about those RPGs that you can make up all the interesting things yourself?
Not everyone is creative enough to make up session after session or create a whole world. Plus, the idea of whole new CLASSES (D&D has only added ONE so far and that was the Artificer last year) pleases me.
TBH, they had me at 'Necromancer...'
Creativity. Time. These are the things required for quality home brew.
Desire. Money. These are the things required to buy someone else's home brew.
Fortunately, these people can trade, and each get closer to achieving happiness.
Note about the ad, necromancer is already a class, it's called cleric.
77,777 views. Nice.
I don't really like the new art, but this one was nice.
This Dm must submit his mind to made into the ES6
First upvote! Somehow!
Unfortunately I couldn't really... understand this one. Things more or less started going in one ear and out the other after they went to restore the dude's power...
Kinda in the same boat- sounded like OP was the same. I'm really curious about the guy with the Vecna bits though.
Yeah same, I wanted to tone out as soon as I heard they were saving and restoring a god at like the very beginning of the adventure. Nice build up there DM.
@@Vaed_ In fairness, he apparently didn't expect them to actually take off the crown yet.
@@Vaed_ It wasn't the very beginning of the adventure. The OP said that he had joined a campaign already in progress. From what it sounds like, this adventure took place mid-late campaign which is about right for a "restoration of a God" story arc.
why was this guy the "Greatest DM" exactly? sounds like just any game or DM to me.
Just gonna ignore the "I've ever had" part huh
Your Voice sounds an awful lot like Octopimp lol
Are there other you tubers who do this? But with less annoying voices?
Who the F is Valda? Voldo's female doppelganger? Blue check mark book much?
Sounds cool, but I'm not a fan of player versus player in D&D. Inner-party conflict is fine, but not actual combat. To each their own.
I don’t actually like 5e. Now, Ima 2e guy... never played 3&4 due to being too damned busy. But 5 is kinda weak sauce comparably. It needs a bit of... well, older editions, added on. I HB everything in my campaigns, but use the new core rules. I will admit I like the streamlined stuff(combat, skill checks, etc... ) but I still think it’s too ‘dumbed down’.
