    I can imagine an adventure where the Ghost King Geb convokes a group of adventures to slay an Umbral Dragon that has attacked Geb, since his own army would be weak to it.

      Given the lore that powerful necromancers often try to tame umbral dragons I can imagine that one of his death lords had made a disastrous attempt at taming the dragon, gotten devoured, and that the dragon is now loose in Geb and rapidly approaching a heavily populated area on its snacking spree

(and the fact that the dragon has just made a Blood Lord position up for grabs could make for extra fun background intrigue where some parties want to make sure THEY are the ones to slay the umbral dragon in hopes of receiving the title. so the dragon may not even be the only threat the adventurers needs to watch out for and they may not be able to trust every offer of assistance they receive ;))

    This video just flew by, and the two dragon videos are easily the best of your creature features to date. Occult dragons sound like they'd be great to trade really strange stories and lore with. Is it possible to get dragons drunk enough to loosen their tongues, and how hazardous is a drunk dragon? Having now seen both dragon videos, I think my favorites are the outer dragons from the end of the 1st video. It's odd that a technically material plane creature would seem the most exotic, but I felt that grouping really stood out for creativity.

    • @TheMythkeeper

    Fantastic video as always :) would you ever be interested in doing a video on magic and alchemy? I like the different schools of magic and how they work (especially with relation to rune magic) and alchemy is such a signature part of pathfinder to me but i don't actually know if there is an explanation on like how people liquify spells and such

    • @TheMythkeeper
      @TheMythkeeper  Год назад +1

      I don't think the spells are 'liquified' per se, they are just magic potions that have similar effects to spells and from a game abstraction standpoint it makes sense to use a common set of abstractions. Ie: Potion of Invisibility isn't necessarily the exact same thing as a Spell of Invisibility in terms of the lore of the game world, but the mechanics are the same in terms of the rules. Honestly this is kind of why I've avoided this topic so far. Things like the schools of magic, and the intricacies of alchemy can overlap with mechanical discussions. As we'll see from Remaster, the schools of magic as they currently exist are probably going to change in the near future, so I'm going to sidestep stuff that requires me to discuss game rules. But never, say never, I may get to this topic in the future, we'll see!

      A few people have noted this, but I think for the most part I will just need to do a video about the "lore updates" and let people convert the lore in whatever ways suit them. I think Paizo themselves will also not reproduce every single detail of the universe with the new lore either. Most old lore will stand so long as it doesn't conflict directly with the new lore.

    - A series of biographies of prominent figures in Golarion, particualarly the iconic characters (Ezren, Kyra, Valeros, Amiri and so on).

      I've had the 2nd Edition lore updates primer video request a few times now, so I probably will do that at some point. As for the prominent figures, right now I am basically doing Creature Features, Region Deepdives, Religion Guides as my primary videos and I have a lot to get through, and in the near future I will add Faction Guides to that list as well. I think as I wrap up my Region guides I will look at potentially doing significant character guides as well, but no plans in the near term for that.

  • @presidenttogekiss635
    @presidenttogekiss635 Год назад +6

    I´ve been expecting this. I find the elemental and planar dragons to be a lot more interesting than the material plane ones. I know I´m on the minority here, but Im glad they´re getting rid of the original red, gold, silver, green, etc dragons.
    My only question is what they´re gonna do with the named dragons that already exist, such as Daralathxyl or Mengkare. I´d wager they´re probably getting converted into an infernal and heavenly dragon respectively.

    • @RainbowLizardOne
      @RainbowLizardOne Год назад +1

      I doubt Mengkare is going to be featured in many upcoming products - he's heavily involved in one of the 2e adventure paths to a level where I'm not sure if they want to confirm his fate.

    • @presidenttogekiss635
      @presidenttogekiss635 Год назад +1

    • @TheMythkeeper
      @TheMythkeeper  Год назад +2

      I don't think they will reprint old books with lore updates to make them fit with retconned lore, BUT I do think there is a possibility we get some kind of general lore conversion. Ie: Gold Dragons are now "Sacred Arcane Dragons" and Black Dragon are now "Profane Occult Dragons" etc...

    • @TheMythkeeper
      @TheMythkeeper  Год назад +1

      I think the only reason they don't is that the dragonborn are now very iconic D&D creatures and they want to differentiate the brand slightly. That being said, we know dragons can easily cross-pollinate with humanoids because they are magical creatures so half-dragons or dragonborns are a really easy ancestry to homebrew for your own setting, and it doesn't break the world any if you do.

Though on Mystara they were called Gemstone Dragons and had different "colors" than the 2E ones, at least according to Mr. Welch's Welcome to Mystara channel. I'd guess the Paizo people thought they'd be redundant or confusing with Earth-aligned Primal Dragons, so they condensed.
