Anyone else imagine themselves at a seminar in a prestigious college in a fantasy world/realm listening to "Professor Pickett" every video?😋 That, or we're all newer Gods and Goddesses listening to an arch/old God about how to mold the worlds we'll soon be overseeing
Ive used this item a couple times in games its really cool and not easy to move so a player cant start screaming "mine mine mine". I can generally get rid of it after its done its job....very cool AJ,thanks!
I supose you could have the leader of a bunch of petty empyreans use one of these as an actual throne. Then as the said "god" slayer sits on the throne to establish their new order of rule, after the ultimate conquest. They're just teleported to a celestial plane to the sound of crying children and the sight of a huge glass being placed over the top of them. As a vast sheet of rectangular paper is slid underneath their feet. "nasty little critters aren't they dear?" ans "honestly darling i don't know why you let the kids play such dangerous games?"
If you think about it, isn't using the throne just painting a huge target on your back? It's like sending a text message directly to every god's cell phone.
That was very inspirational...I might have to added it to one of my characters personal quests....since your doing artifacts I think you should do a video on The Book of Vile Darkness😈😈👍🏼👍🏼💯
DM: What is your character thinking of? Player: Man I am starving, is there any pepperoni pizza left? DM notices the player is not psying attention and rolls dice. DM looks at their homebrew and nearly falls of his chair shouting obscenities. Player: Huh what's wrong? DM: Your character is now the Champion of the Minor God of Pepperoni Pizzas....and we are done for tonight!! The DM says tearing apart some rather intricate-looking flowcharts. Lesson: Always homebrew with care. And play stupid answers straight with caution.
AJ Pickett Thanks AJ, I wonder if you can make a wish on the part of another with the throne? Edit: I also wonder if this means the throne has a equivalent level of power possessed by a deck of many things, or if it's due to the "gambling" nature of the deck? Then again, I believe it's easier to destroy a deck than this throne.
When you block a person from your channel because they have posted offensive or abusive stuff, they still have access to the like or dislike button, so, my guess is what you are seeing is essentially the wailing, voiceless tantrum clicks of the guys who thought they could say whatever they wanted and not have any consequences. What they will never understand is that those downvotes are like the notches in my axe that I look at with pride, for they are enemies who I have vanquished, to protect the friends who have graced my channel with their awesome presence, warm hearts, excellent ideas, and stunning insights. Well, that is my theory anyway.
I needed this artifact more than I imagined! the creation of the local empire of my homebrew world is tied to the God(ess)-Emperor(ess), an Aasimar who is the avatar of a certain god of their pantheon. instead of naming the age after the Emperor(ess), they name it after the gog of which they are the avatar.
@@LurkerDaBerzerker things are going alright. Finally got a job interview lined up. I've been looking for months now, this is the first call I've gotten, so...here's hoping. How about you? Everything going well?
Seamus Fish Ok I suppose, having to borrow internet service from a neighbor and I just got over a three day flu type deal. However, the Baremettle channel recently uploaded a demo video of some upcoming content for their game, namely their Thaumaturgy system. I Highly recommend checking them and Exanima out, it's a difficult game but it's incredibly satisfying once you get the hang of the controls. ( It's even more amazing when you realize that there's only one dev that is able to work full time, and he is the lone coder/programmer for their game. On top of all that, he is making their game engine from scratch, so it goes with everything else.)
I'm running a campaign with a lot of themes from the dark tower series by Stephen king. I'm debating on putting this throne in the top room of the tower if the players choose to climb to the top of it
@@lebanemcarl68 I considered teleporting them back to session 1, Just making them take psychic damage, or having them suddenly become god in the literal sense for a few moments literally feeling the experience of a lion hunting a gazelle, a gazelle being hunted, a virus infecting an elf, an elf in throes of death from a terminal illness, a Tarrasque about to awake from its slumber etc. This obviously being far to much for them to handle they would have the "Oh fuck I'm god! I don't wanna be god!" and start taking psychic damage.
Dragon magazine there was some rings that stopped you from aging or done unless you was slain but if you have regeneration that could be pearl pretty powerful especially when the Rings go invisible and cannot be detected
My half elf would desire to be a full elf. Only so that way his mother would have the opportunity to be able to raise him to maturity in the elven manor. His mother could only stay for 8years to help raise him and that is such a short time to a human let alone a elf. I want to gift her the motherhood and joy of motherhood she deserves.
so Thanos finds the Throne of the Gods. Stands in the seat and casts polymorph on the throne and turns it into a gauntlet. With a clear and persice image of half the life in all realms connected to the throne he slides his hand into the gauntlet. With the power coursing threw his body. He doesnt waver in his image. His finger some together with a snap. he whispers a small "your welcome" to the ungrateful multiverse.
me: alright guys now we have to RNG this throne and kill a god party: but you have to teleport us right away if it's the wrong god me: ... don't worry I got this
Here's how I would do this! build characters to level 20. Playing many adventures until reaching the throne. The player that sits on the throne first at the end of the game becomes next dungeon master! And everbody else starts a new character! Raise and repeat until everbody has a turn being dm! 😎🤔
AJ Pickett I played in an evil campaign many years ago. All evil player characters, that game was DARK! Definitely not a game for kids! Tharizdun was our patron, it was back in the days of 3.5... ah the nostalgia... dominated children from an orphanage with flasks of Alchemist's Fire (FYI they can’t throw very far and botch on high rolls, but oh well no witnesses), selling entire towns into slavery, multiple PvP deaths, no trust between the group... fun times
@@tonyoliver4920 And as soon as you spoke to him, ALL OF EVERYTHING stops existing. Including the PC speaking to him, the DM, the DM's pets, heaven, hell: everything becomes nothing. Game over, everything is now instantly an empty and black void of nothing, an eternal realm of annihilation instead of just a sphere. You win, if you call that winning. :)
My Dregoth pc version made a throne with primarily psionic repair options, in case someone was stupid enough to try and attack him that way. Psionic surgery and such. Not a god yet, lol
1.) When you say every plane, but then say that there would be one in your home brew world, does that mean that each prime would is its own plane (or at least layer)? 2.) are those the only things you can wish for (that it will grant at least)?
1) Yes and no, what I am really saying is the game designers say "You can put one anywhere, the gods made them, they are not specific to one location". 2) Yes, though the designers imply that a character can ask for other things, but the gods (The DM) may react unpredictably. The Throne does give one of the best chances of increasing multiple attributes and giving a level of experience, which is a fairly major deal in any edition of D&D.
Seems pretty (Extremely) weak for an epic interdimensional throne connected to all gods, made with the power of all gods. It's far worse than finding just a Manual of Bodily Health and or the other ability tomes, and those have no risk chance to use them, and those exceed 20. Wtf was Wizards thinking. Who would have thought that some paper bois would exceed the power of all the gods. A good high level plot element could involve the Throne where a cabal of cultists seek the throne to use as the catalyst for a spell to slay all the gods using a similar item made from Elder Evils where on contact with the throne it acts like a virus tracing the Throne to all associated powers. The throne being associated with all the gods, is a critical crossroads of all their influences. The elder evil item being something like a heavily cursed totem of twisted patchwork flesh the cultist high priest had been wearing mounted on their back the whole campaign, annihilating the throne like a Matter anti-matter reaction.
Would be cool to make a video of who or what would exist in every setting because lore reasons. How to make it, I don't know. You have the goblin that duped himself, the throne, erhm.... What else?
What if you change all creatures alignment to good? Or even unaligned, that will unmake any god in the opposition, and cause a interplanetary war. That should be threatening enough for a god to unmake the throne.
@@robinwang6399 It's far easier to look the other way over the end of a single mortal life than to motivate all forces for Armageddon. Sure, it might create one pissed off petitioner, but that's still a problem that that petitioner's god can easily "solve".
Whoa bud,that atifact is exsisting on multiple planes at once it was created by many deities simultaniously and has major and minor powers...its awesome 😁
I am going to use the thorn of gods in my new campain. I need them to stop there a pandemic ending the world and decomeing the god of plage by why of the throne sound like a good posable plan.
Wish to destroy it 1000 times!That's crazy.Imagine all the mountain dew and oreos I could have if i had 1000 wishes.Imagine all the naked men and women that would surround me on my private island full of loyal devoted followers to their queen me.Imagine the awesome military that would fly around on winged dire T-rexes with lazer eyes and regenerating troll dna. ensuring that noone would fuck with us.Why would anyone waste 1000 wishes on destroying a throne?lol
Someone who really wanted to destroy it so they used simulacrum wishes to chip away at the throne every day for about 3 years, practically an afternoon nap for a long-lived Elf let alone a deathless Lich- Or any high level caster with Clones.

Really like the idea of you doing a series on artifacts and other odds and ends from the old books/magazines
Me: Make me one with everything!
Gods: Here is your hot dog with relish, onions, sauerkraut, chilli, melted cheese, castup, and mustard.
I wouldn't even be mad...
The idea of regional effects for artifacts is so obvious and brilliant. Thank you for adding yet another world building tool to my collection.
Great video AJ. This item can also be called the "Throne of sitting and making a super-wish that just might anger the gods."
Taking "seat of power" literally.
A god’s throne deep within a mountain, you say?
Crom, is that you?

I.K.R. P.C. :"by the way, all powerfull vengefull beings beyond my litteral comprehension. I'm one upperty little mere mortal sitting right here!" XD
Never mind how many Inevitables you'll likely aggro just thinking about sitting in it.
It's like finding the Presidential Alert button and accidentally using it to tweet out your face and a Fax scan of your butt from the office.
Thanks for the ramble sir, love the person to person touch.
