    I think it would be really cool if it was mentioned that she’s one of (if not the) most worshipped deities in the seldarine drow societies. This would mean an increase in her power, influence and maybe even portfolio. She and Lolth would be competing for the post of mother goddess of drow and the spider queen would be forced to split her portfolio. Evil and neutral drow would be under Lolth’s domain and Eilistraee would have domain over good drow. So as Lolth’s portfolio shrinks, Eilistraee’s grows, which would cause a lot of conflict and motivate attacks on the pacific drow societies. Which is a perfect setting for a D&D adventure!

He has almost or possibly as many as lolth. In every. edition. of. the. game. even in the two points in history where Eilistraee backstabbed and screwed him and cost him most of his worshippers... he STILL had more than her.

    When you get 6th level spells, you can cast contingency on something that will auto trigger a spell on you.

Contingency: If a magic mouth says, Invisble Entity Detected, cast see invisible.

    Druid with runeshaper. Put down spike grown then command several enemies to walk through it while losing a turn for all of them.. Take alert and get yourself 16 starting dex so you can go first more often than not and pick up extra languages (rune shaper also gives you giant language...) and you can literally command everyone the rest of the game while your many minions beat up the enemy for you.

    I would keep most of the original lore regarding the drow's origin but recontextualize it. Have it be that Lolth LIED to the elves that followed her in her betrayal and were punished when that coup failed. Then, in the countless years leading to the "modern day" of Faerun, Lolth has established a lifestyle for the drow that kept her grip on them tight as the culture they were essentially taught and born into feeds on the worst instincts of mortal elves. The ultimate Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss. Eilistraee enters the picture working thr background as Lolth's powerbase continued to grow. Because she deceived by her mother and she and her mortal people suffered as a result, her profile changed from "Goddess of Good Drow" to "Truth" and/or "Redemption". Let her story be that she would visit the dreams of those drow discontent with the Lolth-borne culture and she revealed the truth of the "Great Deception" and offer them a chance to find a more righteous path and life. Let this continue over the centuries until Lolth's power base is no longer as strong as it once was and now those aligned with Eilistraee are a legitimate rival in power and numbers. This allows Drow as a people the agency to choose be good or evil, or even neutral if they dont wish to be part of struggle between two gods. Those Droe who stay with Lolth can now be more nuanced. They could stay because they actually like the life style or the lore of power and status, ir some can stay out of fear of if Eilistraee is lying or is even worse. Those who side with the Dark Maiden don't have to be so good that they dedicate their lives to "saving" all drow, they could simply be content with leaving Lolth and her followers.

    Got any ways of making modified low level creatures as bosses? I had an expanding list of creatures that would make good as a random bosses for random dungons or such. One that i liked was a rune carver imp, seprerated from their master as their task was done and taking their spell book along. Not focused on spell casting but being empowered by it. Having rune knight enlarging ability. The thought of a small creature becoming large and becoming invisible at will. That will steam roll a party member. But also not out right evil npc. This imp could trade things and info while traveling such caves. Its always nice to have rp beat combat based off circumstances.

    • @smilesschemes

      If you're thinking of having bosses for your dungeon, having something like a hierarchy does seem like something that would lend well to the dungeon. And in this way, lair actions could be a fun mechanic to implement. Definitely giving them some buffs either in the form of resistances, extra HP, some special actions that they can take that make them feel a bit tougher to deal with... do these help?

    When it comes to an IU PoV with established settings like DnD or Pathfinder, a part of it is just what "undeath" means in the greater setting as a whole. How such magic interacts with lifeforce, souls, the afterlife, or the like. To say nothing of just settings where "good" and "evil" are less subjective social constructs, so much as scientifically measurable forces of nature, with entire dimensions literally made of them. Mechanics like necromancy getting a buff in some random Evil dimension kind of removes it from even being a question of "ethics". Take DnD's Evening Glory. Even trying to be a "nice" goddess of undeath, a lot of what makes her up... isn't really all that "good". More just "non malevolent"... and even that's kinda iffy when you get into her priest being Liches. Hell, the main thing that even gives "live forever with your love in undeath" any merit at all, is just how much of a crap shoot a lot of the other DnD afterlives seem to be. Without that, her whole pitch would come off as way more manipulative by nature. It's like how a hypocritical god can have both murder and public service in their portfolio, but regardless of what draws any particular worshiper to them, said god is at the end of the day their own independent being. With their own wants and motives, and thus the worshiper has no real say in what aspect of them shows up that day.

    The ethical practice of necromancy - that is conjuring spirits that WANT to work with you and not forcing them to - has many benefits to it. 1) You spend less time and energy trying to assert and maintain control over them. Plus, those willing to work will have passion into their actions, possibly improving their strength. 2) This does not earn you a bad rap amongst the living or the dead. Whether you're a medium solving a murder, or a general who is asking his soldiers for one last stand against evil. 3) It's much, much safer. Not only would people go from hostile to wary, or wary to accepting, the spirits of the afterlife will be waiting for you with open arms... not claws.

    • @anonymouse2675
      @anonymouse2675 Месяц назад

      ​@@smilesschemes Oh, that's a list... First, I have to explain. I have a deal with my DM regarding my Artificer/Wizard inventing things. Since he runs a fairly standard medieval level fantasy world, I have to stick with either 500 years or older inventions OR things that could have been easily made at that tech level. Basically anything pre steam engine is fair game. So, that includes wind or water powered Blast Furnaces because the ancient Chinese had them, and wind or water powered Drop Hammers because both the ancient Chinese and the ancient Greeks had them. For the wind power look up Nashtifan windmills here on youtube, same for the Roman watermill complex at Barbegal. For the drop or trip hammers look up: Ancient power-hammers and the city that put steel in the world by Lindybeige. He barely touches on the furnace but you get the idea. Mine are automated to only work when someone is in my factory, and gave a command. The how is simple, as the main shaft spins, there is a peg that sticks out and repeatedly passes through a gate as it rotates. This is where Arcane Lock comes in. Magic Mouth acts like a combination of sensor and electrical wiring to transmit a signal. Is someone there, and do they want this machine turned on? I use simple logic gates for that. There are some good videos here on youtube. Heck, the entire Castle is automated, including the defenses, complete with facial recognition. All that wind and water power is put to good use. Then there's The Ship. Look up the Last Oasis trailer here on youtube, and also the theo jansen strandbeest that its based off of. Yes, I built a functional Mech in DnD using medieval level technology(and it could work in real life). Yes its fully automated. I have my Wizard Homunculus(10 Int.) as the CPU in its Magic Mouth nervous system, so I can control this ship with my mind from anywhere on the same plane of existence. It can even "see" for miles, at least after a fashion. Look up the Camera Obscura. Basically a box with a small hole in it to act as a pinhole lens and dark room. As long as that box is within 30 feet of a Magic Mouth computer... So, of course my ship has four of them. The hardest part of all this was getting enough Jade dust. While the DM didn't actually make me roleplay casting Magic Mouth five million times, he did require I have the components and "spend the time". The trick to getting that much jade was using the Alchemical Compendium from Tasha`s, and doing a lot of trading. Sadly this campaign is currently on hold because one of the players is very, very sick. No idea if we will ever go back to it.

    • @anonymouse2675
      @anonymouse2675 Месяц назад

      I suppose I should also add that driveshafts come off both the water and wind mills and run throughout both the factory and the rest of the castle to provide mechanical power wherever we need it. Like to the self loading Mangonels and Trebuchets, and yes that's all automated too. For every one of these "inventions" my character made, I ran it past my DM before I tried and got approval. For reference, this particular character is Artificer 2/Bladesinger 14. I roleplay them mostly as a crazy inventor, mumbling to themselves and rather oblivious to their surroundings. (I had to dump wisdom) Turns out that when your general plan is "Hit it with a stick!", it leaves lots of room to take spells like Magic Mouth, Arcane Lock, Continual Flame, Wall of Stone, Stone Shape, Fabricate and Glyph of Warding while still having a "Mostly" functional character. I really missed that Wisdom score though...

      Okay, I`m not retyping that whole thing. And it was posted, I checked and even responded to it to add a clarification. The response is there, but not the original post. So, deleted.The only thing I can think of is I mentioned names of other creators, and titles of videos... So you only get the really really short version then. Sorry. You need a power source for mechanical devices. Look up the Windmills of Nashtifan, the Roman Watermill complex of Barbegal, Water powered Drop Hammers and Blast furnaces, The Last Oasis trailer(Mobile wind power, and the basis for a Medieval Mech), and the strandbeest that its based on and look up how his stuff works, and the Camera Obscura(Box with a hole in it. The box itself only needs to be within 30 feet of the Magic Mouth computer to give it vision for miles). How you can automate things is simple. Anytime you have a rotating shaft, put a peg in it and as it rotates the peg passes through a gate repeatedly. Arcane Lock controls that gate. You can split off another shaft from the main drive shaft using gears. there are some fairly simple mechanisms that allow you to engage or disengage those gears as well, and some of those can be controlled by Arcane Lock and Magic Mouth. If you combine the Continual Flame spell with a shutter controlled by Arcane Lock and Magic Mouth, you can create a long range wireless communication system using Morse Code. If you set up a network of these using Magic Mouth computers, you just created the internet in DnD. Anytime you have a Magic Mouth computer, you can create a Control panel of sorts. Just paint letters or whatever on lets say pebbles and glue them onto a board, just like a keyboard. When a "button" is touched, a specific Magic Mouth is triggered. You can put a Wizard`s Homunculus in control of that keyboard and now you have the entirety of the network you created, and thus everything tied to it, in your head. You can control the whole thing from anywhere on the same plane of existence.

    I'd love to see your take on an Ultimate Innkeeper. A character that can use Demiplane, and long term beneficial spells, such as Hallow, glyphs of warding, etc.

      Thank you Gary, for you have blessed this channel with a build video I really want to make. More on this soon…

    Hm. It's got some really poor combat ability and terrible defenses until 7th level. So, be sure you know how your DM runs Stealth, Hiding, and Surprised. Also talk with your table about letting you get enemies with Surprised to buy them turns and keep you relevant. Do note that campaign-specific backgrounds are not usually expected to be allowed outside of those campaigns, so ask your DM if it's okay first. This would really only work well in a low-combat campaign that's all about sneaking and heists, kinda like Keys from the Golden Vault (which I'm playing in currently!) I would generally expect a well-built Druid to out-perform this for Stealth opportunities, and a Hexblade+Gloomstalker will probably deal five times as much damage while achieving most of the same Stealth abilities. There's also lots of room to optimize the build even as it is. But, it's a fun idea! Thanks for the video!

      yeah, adding Hexblade and gloomstalker would definitely outperform this in quite a few areas. in the pursuit of a high meme stealth roll, we do lose out on some key features that could help us in other areas. but there are the features that this build does exceptionally well too

    You are in error as to your interpretation of statistics. It is an easy enough mistake to make as the following sentence refers to keeping your INT, WIS, and CHA one might infer that statistics only mean STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, and CHA but if you look at the find familiar spell it says you summon the spirit of a celestial, fey, or fiend and it takes an animal form of a beast and has it's statistics. Do we only use the STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, and CHA of the beast chosen when following those instructions for having those statistics or do we use the entire stat block. The word stat in stat block is actually short for statistics. Therefore when magic jar says we get the statistics of the creature they mean each and every single thing in that stat block, except for what they exclude... which is INT, WIS, and CHA, and also any class feature, but that leaves the entirety of the stat block to work with. Why else do you think this spell is 6th level has such precarious conditions? Simply for some STR, DEX, and CON plus little else? No. This spell is evil but it is also 6th level and quite powerful.

    Had a Halfling Fighter, Cade Lockfoot, an Irish Halfling that came out of retirement from his days of being a weapon and supply Quartermaster for mercenaries. Had a shield and hand crossbow. Acted like it was one object as a Shield Bow. Due to being a Halfling, I would stand between people's legs and use the fighting style to intercept attacks on my allies. Blocking more than 150+ damage through the campaign. Having max dex and Halfling luck, couldn't land a shot for my life. Got 5 attacks that landed. So I built into my support using this feat and inspiring leader. It's ironic seeing I was also a samurai. The fighter that couldn't fight, BUT dang did I carry my wizard and other casters to victory by being the living shield.
