Let’s build a D&D campaign with ~dark fey vibes~
🕑 Added 2022-08-31 04:12:46 +0000 UTCDark fey adventures in the shadow realm? 👀 Don’t mind if I do! Popular third-party D&D 5e publisher Kobold Press just released their plane of shadow campaign setting, “The Book of Ebon Tides.” Today, we’re gonna talk through what a Dungeons & Dragons campaign set in the shadow realm might look like!

When I first started working on this video script, I couldn't figure out how to make it more interesting than just walking through the chapters of yet another campaign setting book. All I REALLY wanted to do was make some characters and start an adventure. So... I did that instead!
By the way, I know this is yet another example of a pathetic 14 overnight hours of "early access," so I want y'all to know that I am in talks with a video editor to start to take on some of the post-production labor, which will hopefully mean ACTUAL early access (like... days early!) if that works out, and once we've gotten into a rhythm. So you'll no longer have to hear me say I'm sorry and make excuses and then continue to finish every single video late on Tuesday nights. SORRY! ugh!!

Your videos are always good but this one especially stood out. Sketching out a campaign for a world book really helps get your mind in the right place about what's possible with the book. Hopefully, they will fund you to make a video for their new Wastelands book as well.

I think you mean help a lot and give me the confidence boost I needed! Now to go to Kobold Press to look for piratey books.

Even when you know what you're supposed to be doing, it can be so daunting to face down an entire campaign!! Glad this could help a little!

That's so cool!! For me the hardest part of picking up an entire campaign setting book is getting a feel for the ~vibes~ so I hope this helps give you an overall feeling and some basic info on stuff like the Shadow Roads that helps make it easier to take stuff in once you're reading the book itself!

This was great. I am working to put together a campaign for my old, pre-pandemic, play group and this was a great reminder of how to sort of... start that process again.

I just got my Kickstarter hardcover in and this is the perfect video to help me kick off my reading. The whole last half of my current campaign will be in the shadow realm.
