Whenever Jorphdan uploads anything:
"Oh lord, where has my Dagone"
"aaahh dagonnit!"
Especially since I rewatch all his other videos
He'd be a fun Fathomless warlock pact. Slowly acquiring the look of a crew member of Davey Jones's crew as they become insane. Maybe they broke free, but somehow kept the control of the water based powers.
I used to use him as a Pact of the Fiend warlock before the Fathomless came out. I actually have a nautical themed campaign that touches on the story beats you brought up.
I have tentative plans for a Fathomless Warlock with Dagon. A Triton forced to do his bidding in search of... something. Haven't fleshed everything out yet!
This is so interesting. My party actually encountered Dagon as I took inspiration from AL module DDAL07-17 from the Tomb of Annihilation season. I merged part of this story in with the main ToA campaign. Had no idea that Dagon was a demon with such robust history. Wish I had this video a year ago! Shame on me for not doing more research. 🙁
I ran that whole series as a epilog to ToA about a year after my players finished the campaign, and it was pretty awesome actually!
Definitely recommend people check them out
Dagon doesn't want anything to do with the well-lit depths. That place has gotten way too commercial
Gentrification know no bounds - or depths it would seem.
I highly recommend anyone who'd planning on using Dagon is a campaign to go a read HP Lovecraft's short story since that'll give you a really good hint on how to treat him as an entity. It's pretty short and really good reading.
I'm not talking about Shadow Over Innsmouth, I'm talking about the story called Dagon specifically.
@@SeraphimKnight shadow over innsmouth is Hella good tho
@@buckhunt6832 yea yea it's good, but it doesn't really do the same thing as the Dagon short story does
Demon Prince of the Depths sounds like me finally rising from my room when the lockdowns are over
I always like to headcanon Dagon as being an eldritch horror who has simply taken a place as a Demon Lord.
I mean, that's more or less what Obyriths are.
@@Axioanarchist yeah but like, I imagine him as simply occupying a Demon Lord form and still being able to eventually occupy his form from a previous multiverse. I like to imagine the physical change as being only temporary.
@@BulldogLawyer Well actually the Obyriths are always in their Eldritch Form, most likely that's reason that they could turn someone mad by simply seeing them, that Is literally another level, not even the Far Realm is capable of that, so the Abyss is the biggest enemy of all D&D Worlds, even the Far Realm can be corrupted by the Abyss
The Pathfider Adventure, “Wake of the Watcher” has a pretty solid Dagon themed high level Adventure.
Can his dad be in place of him?
This is great! One of the NPCs in my game is a half demon tiefling spawn of Dagon. He was born in a Dagon cult but ultimately rejected it and became an artificer. However, he's tormented by nightmares from Dagon, calling him back to the darkened depths and filling his head with maddening visions. He's currently helping the party uncover a conspiracy theory of the gods and demons profiting from it
I like to imagine Dagon just chillin down in the abyss and then some primordials roll up and he’s all like, whoa who’re you dudes? Get out of my swamp!
His canonically tea-buddies with the Demogorgon
1:09 i never realized Mark Zuckerburg was H.P. Lovecraft
A pimp named slick back, u say the whole thing. Yes,every time. A fish named dagon dark depths,said ever time...
lol
Now I need this aquatic race in 5e and Dagon so I can use in my post-apocalyptic flooded world campaign.
Reskin a Triton!
Reskin Kevin Costner
Well, there's a hook for late game in my Maztica campaign! Maybe that portal was too close to the corpse of Coatlicue to be safely traversed by the Shalarin until recently.
Oh I like that intro with the island disappearing. Lmao feels like a great backstory for a tortle. Lol
One of my favorite Abyssal Lords, and a current big player in my Ghosts of Saltmarsh campaign. He's my wife's warlock patron, and she's starting to look for a way to get away from his slimey grip.
Ooo I should sculpt Dagon for my MyMiniFactory store
I just ran a two-session one-shot using Dagon as the main antagonist!
It started with my two players arriving mid evening on an island town called Harloch, which is just off the Sword Coast. Upon arriving, they're met with guards establishing the rules of this fair village and that they need to register with the registrar's office. The players do that, and then meet up with the captain as well as the rest of the crew in the nearby tavern. After many an hour drinking, everyone retires to the inn above the tavern and get some much needed rest in much comfier beds than what the ship offered.
That night, the players awaken, not because of a noise or disturbance, but because the beds were just that much comfier than the hammocks they slept on. They peek out the window to gauge the time of the night based on the moon's position, but notice something peculiar. Their ship they sailed in on is mysteriously gone, and at a finer glance, they notice multiple figures swimming in a zig-zag formation towards the island. They leave their room and go to investigate. None of the citizens are outside, it is night after all; however, there are guards doing their night shifts.
The players go to inquire about their missing ship; however, the guards establish that there's been a murder tonight and that the players are the ones they're looking for. An obvious lie, and quite deceptive, they're rounded up. As they're being lead to some building in the center of town, two unknown assailants attack the guards and reveal themselves as halflings in service of the great Zenafier Spellbinder who runs "Zenifier's Observatory". He says that he saw the player's come in on the ship and that later that night, his crew and captain were carried off. He then establishes that he's trying to uncover a secret of this town and that them working together could be mutually beneficial.
He establishes that he'll do some research on their crew's whereabouts, but to come back after some time. He then states that the party will need better gear before continuing, it could become nasty based on what he finds...
So the party departs, does some minor side quests for gold around the town, buy some gear, and then returns the following night. They return to find that Zenifier's Observatory has been turned upside down. There were signs of magical scorch marks on the wall, bookcases knocked over, and papers all about. One paper stood out although, some one of the players investigates it. It's simply a crudely drawn picture of a church with monsters inside... so the players, with no other leads, use their map to navigate to the "Temple of Umberlee" within town.
The players arrive at the temple and decide to peak through the window, they witness some form of "primordial" chanting. After a few minutes, all the figures inside depart, walking in a mindless movement in unison. They walk behind the church and the players follow, but after arriving in the back, they notice those figures aren't there anymore. There are three graves close by to a tall mossy rock that overlooks the sea. After a quick investigation check, they notice a rusty iron gated door behind some of the moss and foliage on the rock. They unlock it, and the iron gate swings open slowly revealing a dark dank staircase leading down into the unknown.
The players, of course, descend down the stairs. As they're making their way down, they hear voices and footsteps behind them. More of those figures are coming, so they press on. They finally reach the bottom revealing what looks to be a sunken crypt of some sort. There is a layer of water on the ground, four wet stone columns, and moss as well as various other foliage growing in patches throughout. The figures are now revealed to not be citizens, but to be fish-like humanoids, Kua-toa. The kua-toa are sitting on benches facing a ceremony altar. On the alter is the crew's captain, captain Vanessa Vanik. She appears to be laughing manically, just laughing to tears. She's got all her clothes on, but her stomach is revealed and has gaping open. Her rib cage is broken apart and exposed. As she's laughing, her head which was facing upwards looking at the ceiling, diverts over to the players and she makes out a low howl and points at them.
A robed figure appears from the shadow and walks into the light of the alter, it's face is still hidden in shadow. It announces that they've made it just in time. After some dialog, the male character in the party is like, "oh hell no", and attacks the kua-toa. It's two of them vs six kua-toa, and they're quickly outmatched. As the players are about to white out from their wounds, the kua-toa stop attacking. They turn and just face the wall and the players hear them say something in primordial, which translates to "he's here". A low "thoom" sound is heard in the far distance, then amount later again. The kua-toa again chant their primordial dialog. Finally, the low sound becomes louder, as if something is approaching.
Everything falls silent, aside from the sound of faint waves crashing against the rocks from outside the underground crypt. Suddenly, the roof of the crypt is ripped away revealing a huge 80 foot tall silhouetted figure juxtaposed to the moonlit nightsky. All that's seen are a pair of yellow eyes that appear to be gazing towards the players who're bleeding out on the ground of the crypt. The players are forced to make a DC20 wisdom save, at level 2, and fail.
This is what I wrote as they failed their wisdom save.
Their minds begins to white out. As you’re about to succumb to your injuries, you notice a physical change happening to your arms. Your skin begins to tighten, as if the very blood running through your veins is begin to evaporate from your pores. It’s excruciating. You let out a scream of pain and anguish, yet can’t hear your own voice. You have no ears. The normal color spectrum your mortal eyes begins to change, everything is yellow in monotone. You see a vibrant silhouette in front of you, it’s red with an orange glow. It’s another koa-toa, it’s heat signature. You look at your arms, and they’re covered in scales. Your mind whites out, you’ve succumbed to Dagon, and are one of his thralls.
Not quite Mehrunes then. Would love to see more lore vids about mechanus and primus, or even Chronos.
shadowsea has never been invaded because no one wants to deal with Dagon, he is that guy at parties you always avoid.
Is there already a video that cover's the 12 Obiryths that meet every don't ask me years under the command of the Queen of Chaos? I'd like to know who these Obiryth's are and if they're still inclined to get the shard of pure evil (and thus infecting the astral... sea, causing a multiversal cataclysmic event).
Are they even able to, since the blood sea became a blood rift? And what does Oxob-Ob want to do?
You also mentioned that the shard has it's own intentions, I am looking forward to use this as a plot device in my outer planes campaign.
Anyways, great video, keep up the great work 👍🏼
Obox-Ob wants to overthrow Demogorgon and reclaim his position as Prince of Demons, and if possible get the shard of pure evil and use it to reshape the universe to his liking. His goals haven't really changed, he's just in a much weaker position than he was when he started out.
The Queen of Chaos is no longer a big deal. She's just another Obyrith Lord now as her evil plans were foiled. She hasn't really been seen in millenia.
The surviving Obyrith Lords are Obox-Ob, Dagon, Queen of Chaos, Pale Night and Pazuzu, with the rest either being really minor or dead (or both).
@@jonathancampbell5231 thanks!
Not gonna bother with Forgotten Realms, but definitely gonna use this for inspiration for my upcoming Kraken campaign.
Dagons court is surrounded by Ron pearlmans
Excellent video as always jorphden! Keep up the wonderful work!👍 Also well you do a episode on the imaskar empire and the elder evil Pandorym?
That map of the Sea of Fallen Stars stratigraphy is fantastic! Where did you find it?
It's in the 2e Sea of Fallen Stars supplement! www.drivethrurpg.com/product/16796/Sea-of-Fallen-Stars-2e?affiliate_id=728035
D&D lifted this straight off of HP Lovecraft
Dagon is an elder god chad
One of my characters that I always have on-tap for one shots and such is a Trition GOO Warlock of Dagon.
So glad of this lore video, there aren't many on D&D Dagon.
Queen of Chaos, "Making up origin stories for yourself my creation?"
Cool to see One of Griffion's saddle bag's items being used in here
This video is sponsored by the "PH" isn't actually silent.
Nice history lore
Thanks
Primordials goes into the abyss, Dagon " hello?"
just restoring balance, im a cleric
Dagon was the God of the Philistines wasn't he?
Give us Great Mother!
мне понравилось , комментарий для рубрики DND =) лайк и ком в поддержку канала , для алгоритмов ютуба!
The 2001 film Dagon was not bad, and definitely had the creepy vibe down.
Currently I am running a campaign were mostly they need to deal with demons, and the Obyriths are included, and that includes Dagon, the sage of the Abyss
Been waiting for this one for a hot minute! Kudos Jordan!
"countless tentacles" image shows a clear number of tentacles. why do you lie to my face Jorphdan?
Was Dagon even in the Public Domain at the time TSR first appropriated the character? I know its free to use now with a lot of the old Lovecraft but Im not sure it was by the 80's.
I mean, he was taken from real world Mythology. There are no "rights" to take.
@@xytek lol, no dude. Lovecrafts Dagon is not the same as IRL Dagon; ones an evil fish diety while the other is about grain and fertility...they only share names
@@ironreed2654 The mythological Dagon had a fish's body like a mermaid
@@bluebird3281 That's both a late and incorrect interpretation, Google or at least read the full wiki before you jump in. Specifically Dagona was confused for Odakon, the fish man God in the Oannes relief that idea came from.
@@ironreed2654 I have known this before there was a Google. Also Google sucks,I will research some more later and find out where you picked up this heretical view.
wooo obyriths!
I sometimes struggle to really know what the difference is between the Obyrith Demon Lords, whom I guess are still Fiends, and actual nightmare monsters of the Far Realm, which are Aberrations. Considering how alien, weird, and Lovecraftian the Obyriths are, I sometimes wonder why they weren't just Aberrations with a foothold in the Abyss, abs their separate universe wad just the Far Realm, considering how maddening they are simply to behold?
Damn brother
Great video as always
Algo Appeaser.
3:25 where'd you get that map?
Sea of Fallen Stars (2e) - www.drivethrurpg.com/product/16796/Sea-of-Fallen-Stars-2e?affiliate_id=728035
Dagon, dagon wasn't their... He said he was getting milk...
So who lives on 90th ? Under the shadow sea ?
great video!
Dagon it.
Who won the fight between Dsgon vs Demogorgon?
both of them, they both lost the shard to Obox-ob.
Ignore all lore from 4th Edition.
Can you do a video on Malgoth?
The whole idea of layers being infinite but also reaching other layers if you go up or down enough doesn't make any sense. It's not just in this case, e.g. shard of pure evil digging down into the ground. I guess they can be infinite in all other directions but one. But it looks like a layer is simply a region, not a pocket dimension, since you can pass in and out of a layer normally on foot, without a portal or spell. Just by walking (or swimming) far enough.
what is the name of the track used in the opening? I'd like to use it for ambiance for my games at some point, it sounds really cool.
I don't remember the track specifically but it was pulled from epidemic sound - www.epidemicsound.com/campaign/invite-a-creator/?_us=Referral&_usx=1ionu8&
So, this demon has some beef with the devil that has the same sphere... the depths. But why no lore of them clashing?
Dagon? I think you mean Daddy? *shivers in hentai*
Well I’m here early
If Pazuzu is Sky and Dagon is Sea, is there a Land obyrith to complete the triumvirate?
Queen of chaos? Obox-ob?
Is he related to Aboleths?
I cant find any lore on the shadow-sea, ANYWHERE, even in 2023, and wtf is Dagon a father of anyways?
Hello Jorphdan how are you doing ?
I would like to ask you when are you going to do a video about the archdevil Mammon of d&d.
Thank you in advance and have a nice day
Hello~
Now that I'm mostly done with demon lords I was planning on covering the archdevil's individually. So... sometime in 2022?
There's been a new spark of interest in Eberron as I'm potentially running an Eberron game soon. Lots to cover!
🌈🖖
Why is half the artwork aboleths and Cthulhu?
Not much dagon artwork, you're looking at 3, maybe 4 images of Dagon tops.
Sadly Dagon and Obox-ob don't have much D&D art at all considering their current or former importance.
