- This time on MonarchsFactory I'm sharing a tool I've made for Dungeons and Dragons to help bring life to the harvesting of ingredients and brewing of potions.

I'm pretty sure Dael's primary goal in starting this dnd series is to get her subscribers to create an army of dungeon master grandmas.
I have been feeding vids slowly to my own dm and seeing what he might implement is exciting and surprising. I shall create a dungeon master grandma. Dael is a barrel of fun already and she isn't even my dm. Thanks, Dael.
It's a little known fact, but dungeon master grandma is the most powerful monster in the monster manual
Dungeon Master Grandmas have Shillelagh as a cantrip. Not strong or dextrous fighters but with their supreme wisdom (potentially from their "Metagaming" ability) DM Grandmas are deadly melee fighters
That just reminded me of the Grandma Apocalypse from Cookie Clicker and it sounds like a totally legit plot for a D&D campaign. :P
That's what DMG stands for
I sent the link to my DM, I'm a ranger and we have a poison focusing rogue. His response was "Oh SICK!" Haha, thanks Dael, I'm sure you've made his job a lot easier!
This is one of the first things that Rolemaster took on in the 1980's when they revamped D&D into a more subtle, realistic game. It has a number of herb, poison, foraging, and alchemy lists and tables that are worth looking at for ideas, plus an expanded skillset system.
Dael, I love you, its Apothecary....the word you were looking for is...Apothecary...
Herbalist ? Because I thought an Apothecary is the building a pharmacist works in.
@@paulcoy9060 Yeah Apothecary is both the person and the building :P but Herbalist could work too though its a less common term for what Dael was talking about.
Are there anti-vaxxers in D&D worlds? People who refuse any magical healing or medicine? Does anyone have this happen at their table?
@@paulcoy9060 You just inspired my next character! An all-round disbeliever. A flippin fairy could smack them in the face and they'd still know magic is bull and your "healing potion" will do nothing more than make them have to pee sooner.
@@paulcoy9060 I know PF2.0 has a Barbarian that *refuses* magic aid as a mechanic. Or at least there was in the playtest material. Then you have your low-magic campaigns where I'm sure most villagers would want to burn the witch if someone tried to potion them up.
Purple is usually also a good poison colour, in addition to green. It's what I use for my own game since I am red/green colourblind xD
Me: *opens up link while Dael's talking early on*
*starts reading* Cool, cool.
*keeps scrolling* Wait...
*KEEPS SCROLLING* Oh no!
*CONTINUES TO SCROLL EVEN FURTHER* DAEL, NO! Why did you do this to yourself?
You generated a 32 page document for this?
Absolute mad woman! It's wonderful
When you see a new Dael video and realize _that_ is what you were missing
My sentiments exactly. This channel is exceptional
Brilliant. I'm actually fairly new to D&D, but I've become entirely disillusioned by and frustrated with the book rules for these things. The greatest gripe has been having to pay gold to make things from plants and the like that my ranger could easily procure in the wild. Absolutely ridiculous, especially considering how MUCH gold even simple potions require. It's downright angering.
The presentation of this tool is lovely, and thorough, and easy to use! This is a great boon to many a player and dungeon master.
Dael, I love this system and I'll be implementing it into my current campaign for my rogue right away.
That said, when you asked your phone to roll you a d20, you set off my Google Home to do it too and you BLEW MY MIND. I had no idea it could do that, and I will be showing it off to all of my geeky friends at every opportunity.
My Google mini rolled a 20 when it heard you roll!
not calling fungi plants is the correct choice! they're more closely related to animals, but distinct from both :P
Aha! Suspicions confirmed!
... That just makes me want to see how vegans react to that if I'm being honest
@@farmerboy916 Closer to animals is not the same *as* animals. :P And afaik there's no horrifically fungi-harmful-and-exploiting industry out there.
Also eating mushrooms is like eating flowers or fruit, the real thing is a mess of filaments growing underground called a mycelium each filament is the growing part called an hyphae, fungi cell wall structure is made of chitin structure the same that makes the bugs exosqueletons, also plants cell wall structure is made from cellulose (paper)
All in all there are 4 kingdoms of life in the Eukarya Domain which are Animalia Plantae Fungi Protista this in old biology, because newer division are way too technical and complicated
@@Ryquard1 Yep that's the basics of it!
I love how much effort and passion you are pouring into these little projects!
Have you considered sending this to DnDs Grandma?
PS: Nice thematic Plant/Poison shirt. A true ode to Ophelia
RIP :,(
Have you thought of expanding the list to encompass monster parts/products? For example, the phlegm from basilisks is (supposedly) how you cure someone from being turned to stone. Could you use that in alchemy?
I *love* this list and all the work you did for this, thank you :D
The Tooth in the Back I would definitely rule that if a monster has a strong relation to a specific potion, such as your example of basilisks and a cure for petrification. With some other examples being parts of beasts with dark vision for dark vision potions (for hoomans and other darkvisionless races), and monsters such as mindflayers for potions related to the mind or Psionics (potion of mind reading or a potion of psychic resistance) or a pice of a giant toenail for a potion of giant strength (corresponding to the type of giant you got the nail from)
These are just some examples I thought of on the spot. Any others you can think of would do well.
Basilisk phlegm? GENIUS!!
MCDM's Arcadia #8 has an article on harvesting monster parts, but it mainly focuses on using them as spell components to boost spells.
1000 Thanks Dael! I have a new DnD group with an assassin that wants to do poison stuff and your document will help me a lot.
The wizards of the coast should hire you...
So true!! If not at least take some of her ideas in a revision or something
Much of the stuff she touches on use to be part of D&D rules or has been covered in Dragon Magazine. For various reasons it was never adopted, dropped or phased out. If you put the time in can find digital copies of them online.
You ought to allow the possibility that the player, especially when at a low level of skill, misidentifies some found ingredient. It's late; you're tired; the light is fading; and you've only been making potions for a year or so. You're absolutely certain that that mushroom over there is the kind used in healing potions, so you take it. Turns out you're wrong, though, and the first three people to use your potion drop dead instantly.
This is great. I want to see a fumbles chart.
You botch your herbalism roll
[You to injured party]: "Hey, guys! Wanna try some of deez maybe but probably not health potions?"
[Party members]: GM, do we know he messed up his potions?
[GM]: As far as your character knows these are perfectly good potions.
[Party member]: Ooooooh, yeeaaaaah. I just remembered my character is a masochist and actually enjoys being in pain, but only in this exact situation.
That sounds a tad excessive. Plus it would make sense for them to have some sort of way of checking it.
I could see this being a thing if you rolled behind the dm screen and the player has no idea, otherwise the metagaming might start to eek out a wee bit.
For me that would be included in the check DC.
"Why the Hell not make it?"
-Dael Kingsmill
That's a truly quotable quote.
I love your health tonic idea, and want to take it further: baseline health-potions are just the character's drink of choice. Tea, coffee, whisky, whatever. Can't benefit from it more than once per day, instant 1d8+caster-level where caster level is informally set by the quality of the drink and the expertise of the one serving it (the player's character level if they're making it for themself, but potentially much more if they go to a good bar/teahouse/brewery/cafe). I'm running a sort of spaghetti western themed game where this'd add so much flavour.
Apothecary, thy drugs are quick - Romeo like 2 whole seconds before he dies.
This is the BEST THING, and is going to be SO HELPFUL! I thank you, Vesper thanks you (and we both hope to see Hunter again, too), and I'm sending this to Klouse immediately!
*LOVE* that you included a colour-blind version!
However as someone who is rather severely protanopic (red-blind*) I cannot tell the difference between blue and purple at all so using that as a distinct category is alas lost on me!
Still the thought is appreciated all the same!
*Red is indistinct, kinda similar to black easily confused with grey or dark green.
but really it's all colours - they are a whole lot less distinct and sorta of samey with definite spots of complete indifference.
I was 27 years old when I found out Cadbury's wrappers were purple not blue as I had thought (and only becuase they said so on the news)
Traffic Lights are Yellow, Yellow white.
Nemesis: unripened Bananas.
and so on.
The version provided in the description was actually created by a colourblind subscriber (red-green colour blind maybe?)! I can't really make one that works for you unfortunately, for obvious reasons, but if you drop me some hex codes for three colours you can easily distinguish it wouldn't be too terribly difficult to make the necessary edits.
Super useful document, added to my reference material already!
Dael: “Let’s set some nice moderate DC of 15 for crafting this stuff, as well as a way to lower the DC, I mean the highest modifier someone could have is probably +11.”
Artificers: *”+26, take it or leave it”*
I love the idea of a rogue & a cleric bickering over whose turn it will be to use the apothecary kit today
4 years later, still appreciated, thank you very much for your work :) !
I am so glad I found this channel. I finally found someone who has my same DMing style of where when a player casually asks if they can do a cool thing, and you don't quite know what to do, you then go home and make an entirely new mechanic system and index just in case they ask to do that same thing again.
Awesome video as usual. Spectacular timing too!
OH MY GOSH I LOVE THIS. Thank you so much for putting this together! It's brilliant.
This is fucking brilliant. I really like the tons of options you have to draw at random so it's not just players rolling then getting 3 generic healing potions. Great work!
Dael, this is incredible. Thank you for your hard work!
Another excellent idea and video. Always look forward to your videos and particularly love how far down the rabbit hole you end up going. This is no exception 😁
This is so useful!!!!!! Thank you! That document is rugged AF! Super impressed :)
This is great! Thanks for the reference and all your hard work, as always
I really like the way this is setup and how much more interactive this becomes. Thank you.
This is incredible. The work you have put into that document is amazing! Thanks you!
I love this, it’s pretty useful. Thank you for making this.
This is so helpful! I will re-purpose lots of this stuff to work with my games. Thank you!
Excellent work, thanks
Thank you so much for making this reference! I've been looking for something comprehensive and useful like this.
Your production values both on YT and in print are amazingly high. Very impressed and subbed.
This is literally going to be a lifesaver for my party!! I had to make up stuff on the spot before and I'm incredibly happy and grateful that you made this reference!!
I've been looking for exactly this!! You are a hero!
This is brilliant. Thank you.
This is brilliant! My players are always out there, somewhere, collecting random stuff. Thank you for sharing your ideas!
This is great! Thanks a lot for the work you put into it!
Yeeeesss, even more great D&D stuff! D&D&Dael is an awesome name by the way.
My favorite D&D "Talkshow"
I really like the idea of adding in side effects based on what a potion or poison is made of. Like the idea of a potion made of alcohol and mushrooms that works really well but causes hallucinations that give you disadvantage or something like that.
Thank you for this, I love the work that you do.
This is brilliant, thanks for sharing!
That document is amazing and it has helped so much thank you !!
Thank you for all your hard work! This will definitely come in handy!

Great topic for a video. I'm really a fan of your high-level-thinking-story-based-concepts! 😀
This is fantastic. Thanks for the hard work!
Stay safe and healthy
Thanks so much for doing all this works for me! !!!
Dael, this and every other DM tool you've created are just so fantastically imaginative and helpful. I have to say I can very easily imagine that one day I'll be seeing your name under the credits for 6th edition.
Very well done. I will certainly use it in my story!
Loved this! So timely, since I've been having to start think about this from both my DM and Player roles. And the crafting rules as written also didn't sit well with me. Thanks so much Dael, I could listen to your ideas all day!
Okay, this is too good to pass up. I gotta watch the rest of the channel now.
Great work! Just so you know I am using this in my game starting March. Thank you so much.
This is the coolest thing, thank you!
Thanks for this one mate, really helped me out in a pinch.
