      Idea for the dracolich/lich scence it no longer really need it's skin/flesh. Why not have it as a fleshy gross tengrales to grapple the barbarian that rushed in with no healing potion or healer in tough

    You know that feeling when you originally intended to put your players up against a dragon in a few sessions time, and now it’s going to be a dracolich?
    That.
    (Also - Atropal.)

    I love the freaky ghost breath! The way you made the dracolich look rotten is also pretty nice.
    In regards to suggestions, uh.....chimera?

    Couldn't a Cleric use the DracoLitch's gem to cast a spell, consuming the gem, and in turn kill it

      That's a really good point, esjob! Definitely would come down to an individual DM's ruling, but I think that would be inventive enough to work in my books!
      Cheers for watching.

    Amazing video as always. I love the having flaps of skin. It looks really decayed all over. A lot of times undead can be represented in art as looking like a fresh corpse with some places incredibly rotten. You did a great job of representing this. Keep up the great work! Phase spider could be a cool monster Monday.

    Man. I think this was my most favourite one yet.
    I love the concept of Dracoliches, you could do quite a lot with them I'd imagine.
    Instead of the dragon luring in people that are obsessed with dragons, I'd probably have it call forth spellcasters, and promise them the secret of lichdom if they perform a task for the dragon. The task being, complete the ritual (and unknowing sacrifice of all the witches and wizards involved) to imbue the dragon with this dark necrotic energy, turning him/her into a dracolich.
    And wow. I can just see this dragon's breath attack be spewing up necrotic, black and brown sludge that burns like acid and reeks of death.
    Good episode! Can't wait for Dragon December, hahaha!

      Hey Tony! Great comment and thank you for watching!
      I'm so glad you enjoyed this one so much! I also love your idea for a deceptive, and manipulative dracolich! Great call.

    Tragedy this is only at 3k views.
    Another cool thing to add is the Dracolich being able to talk while in its gem, tempting the players to take it and use it, ultimately to bring the gem to a dragon's corpse.

  • @honeyshuckle9742
    @honeyshuckle9742 5 лет назад +4

    I threw a dracolich at my players actually. What I did was I had a fairly young dragon get sick and run to some dragon cultists. While a proud creature, she knew when she had to ask for help. the cultists fumbled, unable to find a cure, and thus sacrificed themselves, and countless other people, to turn her into a dracolich, so she could cling to the mortal realm long after her body began to decay.
    Now her Phylactery is in the bard's bag of holding... we'll see what they do with her.

    Wow Dragoliches are interesting.. I don't know why.. but I'm suddenly thinking of what a Blue Shadow Dragon's breath attack would be? A red shadow dragon breath attack is shadow fire.. Shadow lightning? OH THAT'S AN EVIL HOMEBREW IDEA, SHADOW LIGHTNING MAKES THE AREA DIM LIGHT OR DARKNESS, AS NORMAL LIGHTNING MAKES A BRIGHT FLASH! BECAUSE MAGIC!

    What if it gained a necrotic breath weapon as well. Or every time it takes the body of another type dragon of dragon it gets a new breath weapon so if it's dies over and over it has breath weapon of every type.
    (lol he made the necrotic breath suggestion right after I typed it lol. )
