There is one in my Waterdeep campaign who is starting to get mixed up with the main adventure story. So much wacky personality. It's a lot of fun, especially since there is also a white dragon involved, and there is about to be a showdown.
@@NoActuallyGo-KCUF-Yourself the white will lose. ....least I hope so. Steel vs White? My money is one the Steel. And agreed! Steel dragons are absolutely fascinating! Here's an interesting campaign idea. Play as Dragons. A Silver, a Mercury, a Bronze, a Steel, and a Copper dragon walk into a tavern...... XD
Painting Minis for my games. Listening to the most chill podcast for dnd, and having a good Sunday night. Thanks guys. Edit: Skarmory has much in common with the Andean Condor and also shares characteristics of pteranodons, and cranes, birds which are held in high esteem in Japan. It is also similar to many mythological, metallic birds such as the Stymphalian Birds, the Gagana, and the Alicanto. Skarmory is also believed to be based on an armored knight. - Quote from Bulbapedia
Really hoping WoTC does a book with these and the other chromatics. Bonus points if said book also has gem dragons and rules for playing variant dragonborn with the new dragon ancestries
A steel dragon's main horde and hoard is the city itself, epic thought for a metropolis level GDP. Likely to have specific currency, probably backed due to economic development and boosting the citizens being of long term gains. Prosperity.
It probably conflicts with canon somewhere, but my own head cannon on the Ferrous Dragons are that they are the dragon species that predate the Bahamit/Tiamat split.
Brain's humor dude. Omg I'd love to play a game of DnD with him. He is hysterical. XD "I mean I'm basically a shovel. I'm made of steel. I'm a f****** dragon." Hahahahaha
My 1st charecter was a high elf ranger who rode a steel Dragon they are definitely my favorite non primary metallic dragon. One of the 2nd edition Monsters Manuel has a decent section on them
Mithrils are dragon-angels with an emphasis on prophecy. That's purely it and that's why they seem extraneous, because of DnD and how they handle celestial good creatures.
Because of this video, my campaign is getting a Steel Dragon that happens to own a franchise of shops, and just so happens to be there whenever the party comes in, lol. It might just take some fine tuning though.
Love the episode! Always great listening to you guys! On another note though, are you guys still unclear as to how legendary actions work or has that been cleared up yet?
Cobalt and kobold is not a false etymology, it's pretty much the same word. From Wikipedia: "Miners had long used the name kobold ore (German for goblin ore) for some of the blue-pigment producing minerals; they were so named because they were poor in known metals, and gave poisonous arsenic-containing fumes when smelted. In 1735, such ores were found to be reducible to a new metal (the first discovered since ancient times), and this was ultimately named for the kobold."
Boys! I need help. You’ve been teaching me about all these awesome D&D lores, classes, dragons, etc. And it’s just a treat to watch. But I have to ask... can anybody explain the mystic unearthed arcana class to me? It seems super fun, but my mind gets lost in the text.
Weird, I don't recall any of the extra Chromatic Dragons being good (might be mistaken) but then you have a bunch of extra Metallic Dragons that are evil
@@Thedungeoncast I asked because it's another dragon that I've seen so little lore on. The only entry I can recall is from the compendium monster manual in second edition. Most people I've talked to about it haven't even heard of it.
I would like to see a 5 headed METALLIC Dragon story pop up. Like the antithesis of Tiamat and obviously younger since it only recently popped up. And it’s story revolves around defeating it’s purely evil and (Spoiler Alert) now Utterly Insane Aunt Tiamat!
Are you implying that Bahamut should give up his power to five handpicked dragons from each of the major metallics, forming them into a super dragon that will spark a final war between the metallic and chromatic dragons that will culminate in a battle between this new draconic God and Tiamat in an epic level 1-20 campaign? Because that sounds dope as fuck.
Think it was the Romans but as for the mythbusters, their method was a bust. However a group of university or college kids had a group stand in formation and they set shit on ~FIRE! And it was awesome.
Mithril Dragons from 4e seem much more powerful than the 5e version. They exist in the Tome of Beasts by Kobold Press. But the Ancient Mithril is only a CR 18 creature, so it's weaker than even a Black Dragon. And they attempted to end the Dragon War at one point. They are nowhere near as powerful as you make them out to be, but still are very cool. Hope you check out the Tome of Beasts for some of your esoteric Dragons episode. Void, Cave, Sea, and Flame Dragons are all super cool.
It is just another way of thinking and processing. Pretty much all of them. They each have quirkiness and it depends on my mood. Silver, mercury, and steels are more my faves but catch me in a bad mood and I can so side with the chromatics (minus the evil murderous intent).
@@charitienicholas9631 Being a copper dragon and hearing you say that my first instinct is to imagine you coming after me while latched on the neck of the arch nemesis of my people. The Red Dragon!
"Enough about Quicksilver, let's talk about Mercury." Ironically Quicksilver is the old name of Mercury.
not to mention the quicksilver ability Mercury dragons also have
In swedish the word for Mercury is Kvicksilver so it basically stayed the same.
Steel Dragons just became my new favorites, i need to introduce one in my campaing

HERE BE DRAGONS!
Steel Dragon whose profession as a human is cartographer :)
The fact that Bahaumt is the only Good deity featured on Dungeoncast so far really speaks to how BA he is
Does it say how Bad Ass Bahamut is, or does it say what Bland Ass Non Entities most Good Gods are?
Yep, DnD has issues with good creatures, especially Celestials, being bland.

It was archimedes who allegedely invented it. IT was a concave mirror that concentrate light that would heat up and burn boats.
Fun fact: the name of the metal, cobalt, really does derive from kobold.
Really? Wow.
@@Thedungeoncast Cobalt ore was often mistaken for silver and was attributed a mischievous goblin called Kobold from German folklore.
Dictionary.com and other good dictionaries explain the etymology.
The Dungeoncast Also it’s highly poisonous which comes from the thing being deadly or dangerous if you see yet
Thought that was funny too, "fake etymology" huh
Really hoping WoTC does a book with these and the other chromatics. Bonus points if said book also has gem dragons and rules for playing variant dragonborn with the new dragon ancestries
Wish half granted :)😂
I really enjoyed this one, you went into depth on this subject in a way that other DnD lore youtubers haven't. Good job! 👍

Loving the dragon lore!

Aneurysms will do that to you.

Hey, more Dragons. Gj as always!
I wonder if we will get prismatic dragons later
Love this series , thought I’d ask if you’d guys cover tieflings. Miss the 2nd edition tieflings ( 4th being my least fav)
Teiflings were covered pretty early on in the show. Ep. 23: ua-cam.com/video/WDCjP2ZaURM/v-deo.html
Because of this video, my campaign is getting a Steel Dragon that happens to own a franchise of shops, and just so happens to be there whenever the party comes in, lol. It might just take some fine tuning though.
Great video!
song/steel are probably one my favorite of the metallic family orium the same, also the name of the wind depicts a fey warlock well i think
I've been waiting for this episode!
All of the dragons in D&D: check out my hordes of gold and jewels and these old rare tomes
Steel dragons: stonks
Could you imagine if all Mercury dragons go to limbo when they die
Love the episode! Always great listening to you guys! On another note though, are you guys still unclear as to how legendary actions work or has that been cleared up yet?
Mithril dragons = Wing Zero with the ZERO system active.

it balances out when you look at gem/planar dragon
The Sodium expodes when hit with water :)
Where is the "other"/miscellaneous dragon video? I am excited/antsy about it!
Like, we need the exotic dragons episode. Keep up the good work!
Any plans to cover the astral dragon from 2nd edition?
Will will eventually cover all dragons. There are so many that it will take some time.

I hope you cover mist dragons
Fuck yeah!!
can you do lore on the fang dragon and wind dragons
We covered the Fang Dragon in the Chromatic Dragons 2 episode. We will eventually get to Wind dragon.
Aluminium was considered more valuable than gold at one point
After this short rest, I doubt that Will loves us. 🤣
The Greek lazarbeam story is true it was called the Archimedes death ray
Would a Mercury Dragon enjoy living in Limbo?
Brass is my favorite, even though it's the least challenging metallic dragon xD
No offense, but when is metallic dragon 3 coming out?
Mithril Dragons are Draconic Angels
Think it was the Romans but as for the mythbusters, their method was a bust. However a group of university or college kids had a group stand in formation and they set shit on ~FIRE! And it was awesome.
Soooo your saying a mercury dragon can do the kamehameha out of its mouth?????
👍

Dude...you just said mercury dragon's are ADHD...
As some one who is ADHD I ask you....
Do you have a problem with that?
Of course not, my son has ADHD. That's why I made the statement, it was so close to the way they described their behavior and manorism
@@charitienicholas9631 That's good. It is actually more like a super power then a disability.
So which dragon is your favorite?
It is just another way of thinking and processing. Pretty much all of them. They each have quirkiness and it depends on my mood. Silver, mercury, and steels are more my faves but catch me in a bad mood and I can so side with the chromatics (minus the evil murderous intent).
