Because instead of using your summoning to bring them to you, you can instead use it as a signal for them to use THEIR summoning on YOU. Instant escape from the stickiest of situations.

One of the Soft Claws cheekily casts Delay Fire Ball and tosses it into one of the more unstable parts of the cave, flips off the dragon with a smug smile and gets TPed out before the blast goes off.

    Oh frickin' hell I have my new favorite dragon with a plot and backstory that is basically something I'd write and would want. Wow. WTF? Dragons and people living together in harmony sounds wonderful and awesome! Imagine dragons helping to transport goods on their mighty backs, running market stalls, and just generally hanging around being normal citizens. You can experience this in Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, where I basically had a euphoric experience in that game by choosing to BECOME a Gold Dragon. The main fort city, sprawling with townsfolk of all kinds, was suddenly home to many good dragons the townsfolk just would marvel at and even talk to. NOW THAT is a dream come true for a CRPG campaign, and I want to try to do a campaign like that using your Monster Classes 2 book, where I plan on playing as a sassy and flirty female Copper Dragon. It might just be a solo campaign with a close friend of mine being the DM. But I really love Zundaer, as I'm going to call her. This is amazing stuff, thank you so much for the video!

    Story idea: Zundaerazylym needs to spread the recipe for her super ripplebark mushrooms to other dragons so they can learn to make their own, but she needs to do it in a way where they wouldn't fight each other for the information. She decides that the best way to do this is to write a cookbook under a pseudonym with the recipe in it, stick copies of it in treasure piles for evil dragons and deliver them directly to good dragons. They also contain samples of the spores of the mushrooms and instructions on how to cultivate ripplebark for the dragons to use as a "fun experiment to try at home". While more murderous Red, White and Black dragons might not be very interested if their favorite hobby is death and destruction anyways, I can imagine Claugiyliamatar boredly flipping through the pages and having her servants make the dishes until she gets to the part with the ripplebark mushrooms and realizing she had found a way that she can achieve her dream of being a high class humanoid lady and not starve. Now she's a big fan of Zundaerazylym's work and she goes to her book signings.

The Draconomicon clearly says that they have an organ called the "Draconis Fundamentum", which turns ANYTHING the dragons eat into magic, and they feed on that magic. That's why metallic dragons are famous for liking to eat precious stones, and each one has a favorite gem that they like. For they do not need meat

    Someone introduce this dragon to goodberry. "...the berry provides enough nourishment to sustain a creature for one day." It solves the dragons problem with food and is very cheap to get as it requires a sprig of mistletoe for casting but doesn't consume the material so it can be used over and over again.

    "You still have to contend with the legendary hunger of a dragon... If you had a couple hundred dragons living in a city like Neverwinter, feeding each of them hundreds of cows a year would cripple the food supply for the humans."
    Create Food and Water
    3rd level conjuration
    You create 45 pounds of food and 30 gallons of water on the ground or in containers within range, enough to sustain up to fifteen Humanoids or five steeds for 24 hours. The food is bland but nourishing, and spoils if uneaten after 24 hours. The water is clean and doesn't go bad.
    One could imagine researching a 4th level modified version that simply produced quality food instead, or produced ingredients that could then be cooked or otherwise prepared in normal ways. While you tend to favor 5th Ed rules, the 2nd Ed rules had even an adult Steel dragon able to use four level three spells per day, so the 3rd level standard variant would allow them to afford food for 60 humanoids, while a mature adult with the suggested modified version could do the same but with quality food / ingredients. This amount could be supplemented by clerics committed to the cause of integration as a 5th Ed cleric of level 5 or paladin of level 9 could cast two of the 3rd level standard version twice a day, while a 7th level cleric or 13th level paladin could cast the modified version once per day.
    Far from crippling the food supply, you have a great potential for expanding the economy by accommodating the dragons their hunts and making up the difference while increasing cash flow to the local temples/churches/places of worship in support of the gods who agree with the goal of this integration.

    I feel like there's one 'plot hole' of sorts with her. Yeah, I'm 'that guy', well, gal, who has my immersion ruined with movies that have unrealistic events/premises and the like, so I guess that's why this bothers me, but... I get that being a laundress is more her hobby than her job, but considering she has such an important mission that she's made so much headway in working toward, I feel like by now she would have sought out more high profile Archmages to ask if they'd like the opportunity to collaborate with a dragon. I suppose she does have her organization, but I feel like it would benefit her and her mission greatly if she were more fully dedicated and thus higher profile.
    Her organization is like a rl scientific research foundation with somewhat minimal advertising. If she could get her mission endorsed by enough important people, I feel like she could essentially rebuild the Netherese empire. I realize it would be a target for awhile, but enough good Archmages protecting it and it would probably be fine. Seems the most logical goal for her to want to teach the world that such harmony can exist by actually creating a localized example. She'll never get there if she keeps working at a brothel for most of the day. Just seems weird.

    • @TheHuntsmanC130
      @TheHuntsmanC130 Год назад +2

      Okay I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one thinking this! I’ve been searching these comments for awhile and found yours.
      That curse was specifically placed upon the comet to make sure dragons never unified again.
      She’d have to find a way to undo or get past the effects of the red comet, but that’s probably something a campaign can cover.
      If we had all the answers in the lore, then it’d be tough to make an adventure for it I believe. But hey, I now got a campaign idea breaking on my head…

    Love your content! You've always provided great insight and plot-hooks that add depth to the homebrew my group runs!
    That being said, a few years ago you were going through different forms of elven/high magic and mentions rituals of myriad, including teasers for insight into High Moor. Any chance it can be added to the docket after these dragon videos?
    Love the content! Anything you do is great, but access to powerful elvish (only race allowed to cast high magics around limitations set after the fall of Mystryl) may be the only magic that has the ability to contend with the ultimate conclusion of my campaign (Asmodeus consuming the night serpent and manipulating adventurers to kill Demogorgon in order to make a play for the shard of evil and consuming reality).

    I'm curious about the dietary requirements of certain dragon species. Longbite would be incredibly helpful to those that need to or enjoy eating meat but some dragons diets enable them to live amount humans quite easily.
    For example when I was researching what Moonstone Dragons eat, I was only able to find moonlight and nectar mentioned in Fiziban's book.
    I was looking into Moonstone dragona deits since it wasn't highlighted in the regional effects like a lot of the gem dragons introduced to 5e in the same book. A lot of the gem dragons favourite food will be drawn to the location a Gem dragon loves since they psionically influence them.

    Repetitively vaulting and fully immersing yourself robs you of your ability to effect change in the world. A dude, even a great king or archmage, can only do so much when compared to any dragon. You just can't be on the same level when you're starting from square one every hundred years, to say nothing of the power and knowledge gaps that only grow wider and wider. It strikes me as a dereliction of duty, a shirking of responsibility. Zundy understands this, does not shy away from her birthright, and is the best of her kin for it. She's close to changing the game forever. She's like a proactive Silver. She's great.

That's means eventually all the plans of ower steel dragon here is worthless in the long run . She has to destroy the curse for dragons to haven a chance at building a civilization, or just living peacefully with humans

They are set between the Time of Troubles and the Second Sundering but before the Spellplague. They're not heavy on lore and the books are always a little outside of official lore but the setting is interesting, and it's a fun read IIRC.
