yoooooooooooo! This is big news, Mystra is one of the deities that I have waited for so long to be in these episode, just cause of magic stuff. Already love it~
@@Punishment90 But tbf, it wouldn't have hurt Helm to summon Ao to speak to her instead of just going "Nope". Clearly Ao wasnt even busy because he literally pops up after the fight and gives her companions a quest
@@Punishment90 You mean other than it would have been the better of the two options and would have avoided killing another god? Yup totally no reason to summon Ao Lawful Neutral = Lawful stupid
I know that I already said this in the patreon channel but I am so happy that you finally covered Mystra. The first character I ever played was a human Cleric of hers. Celestia Kirkroad, Knowledge Domain. Celestia grew up in Mystra's Temple in the care of her Priests. When she was a baby she thought Mystra was her actual mother due to her not understanding what The Elven Priest meant when he said "Mystra is like a mother to us all." When she got older she understood what he meant but continues to address Mystra as her Mother in her prayers. I know I'm rambling but this episode just fills me with such love because of the beautiful relationship Mystra and Celestia had in that campaign. **MY HEART** ❤❤❤❤😭😍🥰
Helm is actually Lawful Neutral and was Mystra's lover. Seriously dedicated to his job. His one ever tear was shed over this. Everything Dad allowed Midnight to keep her human perspective and insight. Sadly, it still didn't save her. R.I.P. Mystra 2.0 :( Love the episode. You guys are the shiz ! Lore on.
The campaign I dm dealt with these churches that are all technicolor and vibrant, so I needed a god to go with that. I chose Lliira goddess of party and color. Reading up on her apparently she worked under Selune and Mystra and now I know who they are. So thanks dungeoncast!
The avatar trilogy was something I read when they were released. They caused me to read fantasy novels for the last 30 years. Dragonlance is probably my favorite, but it started with forgotten realms.
I have read the chapter books these events are from. Beyond the Elminster series, you have the Return of the Archwizards and Twilight war trilogies and more importantly about the creation of the spellplague, you have The Empreayan Odyssey trilogy which is right after the War of the Spider Queen and Lady Penitent trilogies (Those two are about drow). And please read the avatar series for the time of troubles episode lol
Thank you for this. I’m building a home brew world with a magic machine that is regulating time across all the planes but is focused on my world under my city on in the material plane. This helps me fill in gaps and tie that in with the tymora/Beshaba (they’re gonna fuse back into tyche) things I also have going on.
In regards to Shar's banishment to the "void", it's been referenced to at various times as various things. Notably, the Far Realms, The Negative Energy Plane, and the Plane of Shadow. I would personally rule the Plane of Shadow out, as Shar created it, if memory serves. Voidstones and the void card of the Deck of Many Things are both tied to the negative energy plane, so there is evidence for it to be the candidate. Though Shar was also capable of simply siphoning energy from it to create her own plane, the plane of shadows. I think a much better and more difficult prison to escape would be the Far Realm (Cthulhu place). I don't think gods have special powers there, it being specifically guarded against the influences of AO and his god posse by certain very powerful beings. So she'd have a hell of a time getting out of there. As a theory, I believe AO is either a singular enttiy or one of many entities of creation that fill the "void" with oasis of life and habitability within the "far realm". AO just chills and leta his godlings handle day to day, while he sleeps and soaks up power to prevent the "great old ones" from entering his oasis. If AO dipped, the whole bubble would probably collapse, and even if it didn't, there would be nothing stopping the great old ones from wrecking it. My expertise is only in Great Wheel Cosmology, so take all that with a grain of salt.
I was not looking forward to work this morning since tough stuff is going on there, but then I remembered I could listen to your new episode and that cheered me up.
Just a detail here: Mystra is the goddess of magic of the HUMAN pantheon, as Corellon is the god of magic of the ELVEN pantheon. Although they have a portfolio in common (magic), they do not share the same pantheon. So an elven cleric of the magic domain would probably worship Corellon, as a human cleric of the same domain would probably worship Mystra. Not a rule, just a probability.
You can be born athletic, but you still gotta train to be a professional athlete. Likewise you can be born a Sorcerer but you gotta train/adventure to become powerful/level.
How gods/deities and magic work in DnD is one of the worst parts of that universe. How the weave works also always annoyed me and killed much of my interest in this universe. To each their own I guess just means DnD is not for me.
Mystra’s greatest power is having the one weave in the multiverse that cannot be snatched.
i mean, it literally DID get snatched
I laughed way harder than I should have
@@datamancy138 But only one time. She changed the laws of magic forever to prevent it happening again.
Worldstar!
Mystra gives me Jean Grey vibes with how many times she has been revived
yoooooooooooo! This is big news, Mystra is one of the deities that I have waited for so long to be in these episode, just cause of magic stuff. Already love it~
Slight correction: Helm is actually Lawful Neutral, hence his unflinching dedication to Ao's command.
Otherwise, really great episode.
Lawful Neutral... aka an asshole
Or at least thats how i, as a DM, play Lawful Neutral
@@siyarg.4900 He was literally doing the task he was given by Ao. Mystra in her arrogance thought that The Vigilant One would waver for her.

@@siyarg.4900 Helm had no reason to summon Ao. His job was to keep the entrance closed. That's what he did. Mystra should of followed the rules.

Love the episode. You guys are the shiz ! Lore on.
This is by far the most in depth Mystra lore I've ever heard. Amazing video got a sub.
Mystra = The Force & Midi-Chlorians.
yes and more yes we need a whole series of videos for mystra
Mystra: Mistress of Magic, Mother of Mystery.
Say that five times fast.
I must make my players say this five times fast.
I don't get it
Sweet Lady Mystra! That’s a tongue twister 😂
Sweet here’s hoping we get an elistraee episode
OH. FRICK. YES. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS EP FOR A YEAR I'M STOKED.

We need a Ao episode because Everything Dad is OP but im not sure if there's enough Lore on him
Great episode and available for my Monday morning commute 🤙
Good luck out there
Ty! And I always cast mage armor before haste on my car 😏😎
Mystra !! Listening while at work
Ooooh. I loved Mystra. My favorite next to Eilistraee.
Awesome video as always
6:28

Also Silverfall: Stories of the Seven Sisters gives a bit more lore on some of Mystra’s Chosen, with a foreword from Mystra 2.0 😂

DUDES- thank you this video made me subscribe.
I feel like i already know you guys
Exactly the lore I was looking for.
cant wait for the Cyric episode!!!
Oh God I left the lights on in my room, I don't wanna get put in the time out void again
Everything dad just grounded everyone 😂
The Shadow Weave is the spaces in between the threads of The Weave
I'm gonna like before watching the video 👍 because there always so good in callity and content anyway
Mystra is awesome! 🔮
Good episode. Can we get a follow up on Azuth and Velsharoon, and how their churches operate under hers?
I don't remember the Forgotten Realms :)
Brian, get that Prestidigitation cantrip and clean your armor the way Mystra intended.

BG3 Gale apparently did the dirty with Mystra. lol
Yes but Mystra controls the weave so it ends up being all magic anyways
#helmdidnothingwrong
Any ETA on the Kelemvor episode? playing a grave cleric/undying warlock becoming doomguide.
When elminster was taken to hell mystra went to hell to find him and did some serious damagd before leaving
Big brain meme Mystra I like it
It kinda weird seeing Will and Brian after only hearing the voices for 3 days straight.
The broken essence would've been in the form of a shoe (by the way).
will next deity lore possibly be about helm, null the dragon god of death, or lathander
What would Mystra say about wielders of wild magic ?
Anyone care to tell why Ebor Tori is two worlds?
Yeah, its Brent Lough pronounced (Brent Low) or (Brent Lok) but thanks for the effort!

Helm 1 shot her
Still waiting for the time of troubles episode
waiting for the Netheril episode
OH MY GOD!!! THEY KILLED MYSTRA!!!
YOU BASTARDS!!!
U guys are so funny.
may I ask,but,can you make a half/vrok barbarian player character'
LN not LG other than that. God of 5e.
To bad this didn't go past 3rd edition.
Umm I thought Midnight was a drow.
Nope. She was a human.
Might want to update this now that bg3 is out
Bg3 is loosely based off dnd?
@joshuarobinson2272 wizards of the costs helped worked on the game using 5e edition rules
Ah, so it's cannon? That's dope
Wasn't Mystral a male?
Nope. Female.
13:13 Err Helm is actually Lawful-Neutral. Literally unwatchable guys.
Do some Dragonlance!!
too much unnecessary swearing
