I've rolled a couple characters up for Shadowdark, and there are two that I really want to play. One because she turned out really well (A Dwarf Wizard with the talent that gives you an additional spell), and one because he's going to do his best to help the party, and probably die in the attempt (A Half-Orc Thief with 1 HP).
I have a goblin warlock that is still kicking at level 3 after having 1hp at level 1 and 3hp at level 2 (and that was after having to fight off two gargoyles solo when trapped against the side of a temple)! So you never know!
Fair enough! I like it because it feels like it saves me from flipping through books more than I would need to, but neither way is more valid than the other as long as you're having fun!
Thanks so much for checking it out! And it's true that the stat bonuses top out at +4. Maybe since I'm playing solo though I could incorporate a +5 to make the character a bit beefier!
It does not. Shadowdark is a new TTRPG that combines OSR sensibilities with approachable mechanics for the 5e crowd. You can check out the free quickstart books here: www.drivethrurpg.com/product/413713/Shadowdark-RPG-Quickstart-Set
@@NightNoonGames 5e is hot garbage. Are we talking THAC0, and FARTs, when you say OSR? (Also it is JUST RPG. As Tea is Tea, not 'hot tea' and Skiing is skiing, not 'snow skiing'. Just sayin') P.S. Thank you for the link.
"Land of the Lost" was a TV series from the 70s, not the 90s. I don't know what "previous one" you're talking about, though. There was a series of movies that came out starting in the 90s called "The Land Before Time", that was about a bunch of talking dinosaurs. Perhaps you are conflating these.
The previous one was the Land of the Lost series from the 1970s! The one I'm most familiar with is the reboot from 1991, so that is where I'm drawing inspiration from. There was a movie from the late 2000s starring Will Ferrell as well, but it wasn't very good.

Love the enthusiasm. Keep it going.
Thanks so much, and thanks for watching!
I love how I used your exact character creation rules yesterday, and am now watching this today going “Well this feels familiar…”

Thanks for the fun solo series! Inspired me to start my own solo TTRPG series. Please keep it coming 🙏
Great video! I also own the Mythic Deck. I Don't use it much though. I just Prefer the feel of rolling dice over flipping cards. 🤘

I wonder if there is any stat over 18 or bonus over +3 possible? Great view, looking forward for the adventure to start :)
You can get your stats to 20 (actually I think you can raise them above that), but the bonuses cut off at +4.

Any rule goes in Shadowdark, so have fun!
I am sure I will! Thanks for watching! 😀
that's my name!
Is your last name Pilol as well!? 😮
Did you post on the subreddit? I think I may have seen you there.
I did! I make sure to get all my ShadowDark videos out there since not everyone browses RUclips.
Did I miss understand you? Did you really say roll 4d4 for stats? 2:30ish
Hmm... Maybe? I'm rolling 4d6, drop the lowest, to give my solo characters a bit more of a chance, so maybe it was that?
Dinosaur mounts?
Way ahead of you! Why do you think one of the characters is a Desert Rider? 😉
So, it has nothing in common with the Dark Shadows TV show?
No?

4d6 not 4d4...
Slip off the tongue! At least I was rolling the right ones! 😂
