    once Orcus saw fit he assailed the seige malicious, deposing anthraxus of his throne,, and despite having exposed the identities of the Hags of the Oinocoven, Orcus was caught offgaurd by their flaying of his skin by way of a scald in their bronze cauldron, for, his willing skin, once freed of his now become putrescent flesh, called to his wand, and verily the wand flew to the hand of the skin, and the skin stood, holding the wand high, saying "Free! Free! at last i am free! and with thus, the pair flew beyond cereberus's gate into the realm of the material worlds, for purposes which Anthraxus, now come unto death in a gassy bubbling billious blob of unsayable foulness, was greatly overpleased.

      the celestials really need more 5e lore in my opinion. they're covered so little. i feel like AJ would have to talk about groups instead of individuals just to have a video of the same length. like Domiel the ruler of the second plane of mt celestia is awesome, but so little is written about him he'd have a two minute video, including his stat block n connections to other figures.

    • @jacobfreeman5444
      @jacobfreeman5444 3 года назад +1

      Well, celestrials are good on a cosmic level. A viewpoint so removed from the demands of mortal existence it almost isn't recognizable as good. The reason the evil beings are more understandable is because devils are corrupted and demons are insane. It makes them closer in mindset to mortals. You can fathom the base motivations of these beings. Celestrials may be aware of some rules and conditions that make destroying an entire race of good beings the most good choice.

Not just everything within it’s reality, but everything within all realities. If one were to ask it what the multiverses looks like, it would explain that it is somewhat like a brick wall that is both infinitely tall and infinitely wide, with every brick being a different narrative, and thus, a universe.

    On the subject of the mysterious secrets and interactions of fiends, you might think of looking into the Knower of Places and Knower of Names from Neverwinter Nights (beings directly linked to the nature of physical reality and true names respectively).
    They aren't canonical characters and the game doesn't go in depth on their nature, but some lines of dialogue describe them as ancient Baatorians (perhaps existing before Baator became hellish), which sent me on a theory-crafting binge positioning them as the origin of all species (or at least *some* species of fiends and celestials; mortal races from humans to orcs; fey... etc.) via, coupling with the Sleeping Man (an ancient angel in the game implied to have a failed or unfulfillable romance with the Knower of Places), Mephistopheles (who has them both imprisoned on Cania - and is said to have had a similarly troubled romance with the Knower of Names), and perhaps several other powerful beings -- maybe even Asmodeus himself, who, as one of the first beings (and with how many mind-boggling plots he's said to be involved in) I've even theorized could be the father of both the Knowers and Mephistopheles as well, before Asmodeus himself was a devil... or even before he was angel... even maybe a mortal from another dimension or time. But that's going too deep for one comment...
    ... So anyhow: I'm not sure you want to make a video on thin non-canon lore... and there's probably enough contradictory official lore to make my head-canon even thinner, but there's still some interesting potential in these characters and their links to the nature of the planes, maybe if only enough for a passing mention. But somehow I find vague/mysterious primordial reality-altering beings with little actual written lore endlessly fascinating compared to the extensively written stuff. Speaking of which, I think another video on the nature of the Far Realm or abberations is overdue, as well.

  • @Reddotzebra
    @Reddotzebra 4 года назад +6

    Anything that can change alignment in DnD is very interesting indeed.
    I had this thought a while ago when reading the rules, if where you end up after you die is directly tied to your alignment then what happens if you do this to, let's say one of the nastiest mortals that you can possibly think of, an evil spellcaster that has done it all, attempted genocide, torture, this person eats babies for funsies.
    And you change this person's alignment to the opposite, so from being chaotic evil he becomes chaotic good, would he still end up in the abyss once his time is up?

    • @placeholdername3818
      @placeholdername3818 3 года назад

      He'd go to the afterlife his alignment is when he dies. In D&D according to planescape setting which it seems Forgotten Realm uses as well. The way the afterlife system works is intended to feed the planes souls to keep them growing if the souls don't eventually fuse with their gods. It's not about punishing or rewarding it's about feeding the machine. Plus your mind gets wiped in the Astral Plane while traveling to the your afterlife. So basically petitioner you isn't you anymore.

    • @jacobfreeman5444
      @jacobfreeman5444 Год назад

      Sides such an alignment shift would cause a lot of duress to the target of it as their actions take on a new context to them. So the baby eater would not remain uncaring about that action. That they performed it would torment them greatly.

    • @LordMortanius
      @LordMortanius 5 лет назад +1

      The General of Gehenna is the established leader of the 'loths. There's only one General, and he's the first ultroloth.
      The Oinoloth rules over the 'loths of the Gray Waste, in theory. It's a title given to the current ruler of the Khin-Oin, which is either Anthraxus or Mydianchlarus.
      Yugoloth advancement stops at the ultroloth. There is no 'unique' evolution of the 'loths that occurs naturally. 'Loths have to bargain with the night hags to become altraloths, who can be of any yugoloth caste. The process of becoming an altraloth is one that requires cooperation between hag and 'loth, as the ritual ties both their life-forces together.
      Known altraloths include Typhus, Charon, Anthraxus and Bubonix. The other established leaders of the 'loths are 'pure' yugoloths; the Keeper of the Tower Arcane is an arcanaloth, Mydianchlarus was an ultroloth and the General is the first ultroloth.
      And then there's the baernaloths, who were the original creators of evil. They seem to have pretty much upped and left, or retired. The demodands were created by one, Apomps, who was cast out by his fellow baern.

      It is in Asmodeus' favor to keep it going. The celestials would no doubt shut down his operation if the blood war ever truly concluded. He only keeps his power and position if he keeps the war going.

    I request Hegeyokai from the oriental Kara-Tur! :)
    Planning on making a...
    Way of The Shadow Hegeyokai (Hare/Rabbit Variant) who makes marshmallows for the villages he visits at night.
    He deceives past any defence as an innocent rabbit. Gets in. Becomes hybrid rabbit hegeyokai. Then proceeds to open the gate... Party will never know he's the rabbit unless I screw up...

      Shady Bear Yeah, he’s vastly underpowered in 5E. Especially given the lore around him and the logic that the most powerful thing in the Abyss is probably gunna be tougher than a Terrasque simply given the nature of the Abyss itself. (Using a Terrasque as the supposedly most powerful thing from the Prime Material without some connection to another plane.)

    Question about invocations, can a warlock only have 2 active invocations or does the total active invocations increase as the level requirement is met?

    • @AJPickett
      @AJPickett  5 лет назад +2

      The invocations known is equal to the number shown on the level progression table for the class, your character needs to meet all the requirements of an invocation to be able to use it. A level 14 Warlock can have six invocations and two free Arcanum spells on top of all their spell slots.
