Forgotten Realms - Myconids, Deep Gnomes and Other Good Denizens of the Underdark
While most species in the Underdark view their environment as at best a threat that warrants extreme violence and at worst fantasize about enslaving those who dwell on the surface, a few creatures have chosen a different path. In this chapter we examine the population, culture and civilization of the Myconids, the (mostly) pacifist Fungus Folk of the Underdark, along with the Deep Gnomes, the clever and stealthy artisans of the Forgotten Realms setting of Dungeons and Dragons and Baldur's Gate 3.

Gods the myconids are so cool. If there’s one species I’d want to meet from D&D, it’d be them. Awesome video!
I love this so much you have no idea. Such a captivating video, i got completely lost in imagination so i'll have to rewatch it
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! ^^
There is a huge lack of baldur's gate 3 specific lore specifically talking about connections to the actual d&d lore that they put in. It would be cool to see someone do that.
Yeah I want to do something like this eventually, I'm trying to figure out how to do it without spoilers (or at least being up front about it) and I think the format would need to be a bit different to account for the branching narrative possibilities.
God, Myconids are cool, but they just remind me of how D&D can be TOO fantastical. Go try to be in a pirate game, meet a captain, not a single human anywhere to be found, every GD race is represented though, and of course, random myconids spattered about, like "Nah, nope, dude the game is over, the demographics are *ed"
Yeah I agree that even compared to other fantasy species they are quite fantastical. I think it was a good decision to keep them stuck in the Underdark.
Elves are disgusting.
Wonder why Mithral Hall didn't return the favour to the deep gnomes?!?
Too busy eating Myconids.
Why evolve movement if not to commit violence?
A question we can unfortunately only pose to an insane interdimensional fungus.
Lol awsome video, 2 hours of hot drow facts and pictures, what could be better?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video!
Did something happen with the mic or the mixing? I have stable audio on and the music sounds a bit too loud compared to the voice🤔
Yeah basically I've been trying to switch from idiot audio tools to proper ones that take an actual brain to understand. I'll try to balance better next time.
The circle of spores Druid is my absolute favorite subclass in 5e and now that the Spore order has been added to pathfinder I’m all in there. I can play as a Fungus Leshy (a plant based explorer) that’s a spore order Druid. So much fun.
Yeah I think these guys would be fascinating to play. Tons of opportunity for fish out of water comedy and other hijinks.
Love the art and soft consistent voice. Gonna keep watching all these for a good while ❤
Thanks, enjoy! ^^
Thanks for providing great content! Love listening to these long videos for my road trips.
Thanks so much, have (a) good trip(s)!
I always wondered what Belwar did when he had to go poo..
Questions like these haunted me while making the entire episode.
i wonder would they taste good with a little bit of butter ? ;D
Not Kevin! :O
Comment for the algorithm gods
Reply for gratitude. <3
Their Lawful nature should make them group oriented, not individualists.
I tend to agree. Although I think the best way to square that circle is to see their group mentality as a strong belief in the power of their state. We see this in some authoritarian ideologies.
That's funny just found the Shrooms folkin BG3 yesterday lol
nice!
Had a lot of fun helping out the myconids and sverfneblin communities in the Out of the Abyss campaign!
They will sing songs for generations about their Tall/Soft saviors. ^^
The comic book about Trap is called Honor Among Thieves: The Feast of the Moon. Apparently they made like a bunch more DnD movies after that terrible DnD movie that made me never see any more DnD movies. Anyway, they made that comic for one of the new movies (which by the way are apparently pretty decent) and it looks pretty good!
You are not being clear. You are gonna have to be specific which terrible DND movie you mean
@@jacobfreeman5444 The one with a Wayans brother. Ngl I would watch Jeremy Irons in another dnd movie though.
Boom new lorepedia!!!!
💥
Been absolutely binging all of this content. Best thing to fall asleep to ever.
Thanks so much, pleasant dreams! ^^
First comment, yay Looking forward to another great lore video
Thanks for watching first! :D
Yells in Dwarvish: MYCONID STEW IS PEOPLE!
Fantastic bro, thank you so much! 👏👏👏
Thanks for watching! :D
Great content, but can you find a voice actor to read your amazing scripts? Do you have a Moonsea video? I'll check but if not can you make one :)
We're stuck with my voice unfortunately, but I've been trying to improve the narration. I'll try to make a moonsea video, would be cool, maybe I can expand the old Zhentarim script and redo it.
I don’t see enough people question why Asmodeus, out of all the greater deities, has biological children. Other greater deities do not have biological offspring, though some have children in the allegorical sense. It seems quite likely that deities at the rank of Asmodeus could simply choose whether they have a child, or their lover does, as is the case. It further is odd as Asmodeus is not just in a power game with other deities, but from within his own power base. It’s like he wanted a child that would throw Hell’s hierarchy into disarray. It’s one thing for a devil to seek to overthrow an arch devil to take his or her place, but going against Asmodeus is something not even Mephistopheles or Levistis do directly. Adding a child amongst their ranks upsets the game, and to devils, makes a layer Glasya controls to be essentially the domain of Asmodeus directly.
These are all excellent points.
Drow, negative charisma, but sexy AF. Make it make sense.
Bring back "Comeliness!" :D
So glad I found your content!
Thanks so much, I really appreciate it! ^^
Bruv, you gonna make one for the Githyanki? I don't want to learn it from anywhere else. After watching all the rest of your videos, I have standards now :p
Yeah eventually I will haha, thanks so much!
I personally believe that the ice of Levistus can be mundanely destroyed but the treacherous nature of evil will simply never allow to occur unless players and plot powers intervene. An example being -players may free him so they can kill Zerial and Yenoguh at the same time.
I personally think Glasya wanted to kill her mother but Levistus cost her her chance.
I also think that Glasya is one of the Devils that makes deals where partitioners end up better than soul larve or lemures
@@Gabronthe Agree with both.
Great channel but it pains me hearing Drizzt being pronounced Drizzit
I'll work on it. at least it's not as bad as the ZHentarim incident.
Great video!
Thanks!
What is that picture in Thumbnail. I had it in something a long time ago. I'm going to get a large format copy if I can. She's gorgeous and I love that minimal line work style art.
I make the images with AI. I will make a website one of these days and make them available to download, I hope to create more visual material for people to use <3
Thank you so much for these videos my friend. Your writing style is engaging and confident. I always feel like I'm listening to a professionally produced nature documentary, in the best way. Such a nice blend of ecology and history.
Thanks so much! ^^
So basically, Duergar are a caricature of the most negative American stereotype, lel.
Revisiting @Lorepedia library of fantastic body of work in such a brief time. It is a little like following a band just before stardom. Keep it up!
Im very very curious what became of thamalon uskeveran 2.

I love this content man, please keep this up
Thanks so much!
Was not expecting to see AI art in this. I don't particularly care, just a first in one of these videos (that I've seen, specifically).
There is surprisingly little art for how long the setting has been around. Check out the official art for Levistus, it's pretty sparse and weird. Belial is just gross. So, I resolved to try to contribute something. Even if people don't like a lot of the images, if I can add something to the sparse visual landscape I think it's worth trying to get AI to get that stupid devil in that stupid icecube for an hour (not mad at all).
@@Lorepaedia Oh I know, trust me, lol. I'm researching him for a campaign I'm running and there's almost nothing depicting him. But yeah the AI model only knows what it's been taught to recognize, and it was likely never shown pictures of people trapped in a block of ice.
great video again. so much good lore to use for my campaings. This channel should be mandatory for all DMs.
Thanks, glad to be of service! ^^
No offense intended - I love falling asleep to these videos. Thank you.
Thanks! Pleasant dreams. ^^
Malnogee?
Gottem.
Great lore, but dear god man, pick up the pace a bit.
Thanks, yes I tried to improve the narration quality, hopefully it's better in my newer videos.
Some of us appreciate the cadence.
cool video, could you sound less monotone man? please
Thanks for the feedback, this one was pretty bad. Hopefully I have improved in my newer videos.
Yeah I have to say, these D&D videos are the best. Thankz
Thanks for watching!
Grate job on the Vocal Delivery...This is night and day compared to your early videos. You've made a lot of progress 👍 Good Job keep up the good work 💪
Thanks so much, I've been trying to improve!
