So, you basically become a lich without the need of a ritual.

This is great.

Lord Gunther!!! I painted his miniature when I was a teenager

Thank you for watching today's Dragonlance gaming episode. What do you think of the end of Dragons of Flame? Leave a comment below!

Brightblade was my favorite character, started off with legend of huma and it bled over to sturm

Watching this again. Love the reviews.

People, even evil people, often see themselves as the hero of their own stories. The fact that Kit might justify her own malicious behaviors doesn’t negate the evil of them. She isn’t just selfish. She manifests sadistic characteristics. Being highly driven/motivated doesn’t make her evil, but manipulating others and tormenting others out of spite sure does. Kit is truly deserving of being with Lord Soth, by her own actions.

Read this as a kid great book.

Another fantastic summer video. It is surprising how low level all of these characters are compared to their ages and demonstrated.skill. Tanis at 5th and Flint at 4th? Think they'd be a touch higher than Caramon! But, he does have those curls!

Fifth edition sucks! 3.5 was practically perfect. And never discount G.U.R.P.S.

I started D&D with AD&D 2nd edition Dragonlance. I started playing when it was “Satan’s Game”

Great fun. Love the original modules.

I like playing my Dwarven Vengeance Paladin trying to bring healing back to the land, improving the way the old gods are seen, improving the way my xenophobic kin (mountain Dwarves) are seen, and punishing the Draconians who displaced and killed the people of my city.

In short, 5e and 5.5e (aka 6e) are absolutely trash systems.

Go gold!

Raistlin was the story of dragonlance to me. Everyone got introduced to the blue crystal staff, I forgot all about that side quest after him explaining the stars in the sky and how the gods have come back, on a boat, at night, on crystalmere lake.

I always thought that fist was just raist caught in a time loop repeadedly killing himself

Giving this a re-read starting tonight!

am a dragon who protest dragon wars i hate seeing my kin hurt each other i would fight Takhisis maybe knock some sense into her then she would listen

my anthro dragonkin the light dragons the draconis also let go of the old draconic ways and are social creatures loving draconic beings who think all creatures matter to them they are scared of feral dragons and think them as nothing more but wild beast of nature but they leave them alone they help keep things in order like hunting to keep animal numbers low

my dragonkin of my world of Dracon they use Psionics and thought with thier brains to cast magic no book or spell book needed to use thier Psionic magic it also helps them build things or make tech called Psionic forgers that build things in workshop or factory building

You mentioned how there was only one red dragon left and its eggs at the end of the War. Does that mean all subsequent Chromatic dragons came from this brood? Can a red dragon have eggs that turn into Green, Black, White, and Blue? Did they grow up and have to mate with their siblings? Am I the only weirdo that thinks of these things? Don't answer that one 😂😂😂

Great job! It's interesting how Takhisis used Bakali to fight for her, as she would later do with the Draconians and the elves using a magic shield around their homeland as they would do again in the 5th Age. Another case of history repeating itself.

Wow, this one has been my favorite of the ancient wars so far. It seems this time it was more of a "grounded" fight, in the sense that mortals had to use the strength they gained in the previous events instead of gaining new abilities. I wonder if the usage of sorcery was a "retcon" of sort... I'll check older source book when I have the chance, I'm curious to find out

Thank you for watching today's Dragonlance setting video. What do you think of the Second Dragon War? Leave a comment below!

You do great videos! I just wanted to add a detail. Later sources say that a huge meteor (the fiery mountain) was head toward Krynn regardless of what transpired. The Gods would have stopped it but were unable to due to the King Priest having subverted true worship of the Gods to himself. Without the energy and power of worship, they had no power to stop the Cataclysm. I’m not saying this to be a corrector or to be pedantic. There are more sources is really all I’m saying!

Raistlin had already caught the attention of the gods before his final test. I think he seized the opportunity when it was there. That's what it takes to be a black mage. Sieze the day!

I just love Draconians!

I loved reading the dragon lance chronicles so much I named one of my sons after Raistlin

very surprised that a Dragonlance live action movie has not been made as of yet. One in the works?

He was and is my favorite character in all dnd

Sterm was always my favorite. He did influence how I looked at the world

Here weeee gooooooooooo

She had a great story arc

I have two favourite anti-heroes from my youth: Raistlin Majere Dragonlance and Marc Remillard, The Many Coloured Land etc. Thanks for the vid, some great memories 😊

The Irda is one of my favorite DL books because it's a history. It does lack character development considerably, partly because there was never intended for a follow-up on the characters in later books. But as an introduction to the ancient High Ogre civilization, it is very interesting. You're right, it's a tease for lorehounds, and for casual readers it kinda was a miss.

I just remember this series of novels basically featuring cover art depicting residents from the Perfect Body farms. Like even moreso from a series featuring a lot of fantasy art. Never had the cash on hand to get them though.

I hate when i have to miss these live reviews, they are fun to participate in. I was hoping this book was going to explore the degradation of the Irda into the Ogres as most of Krynn knows them, and why Takhisis let her favorite minions get that way, but it doesn't sound like that's what the book was about. Sounds worthy of a read though, thanks!

Never read it, but I remember Usha was adopted by them.

I am glad you liked it. Listening to the review I think I recalled a mistake, when one of the ogres meets a human wizard to get his spellbook and maybe red robes or one of the 3 moons is mentioned, but they shouldn't be around yet timeline wise....am I wrong or did you catch that?

I seem to remember that Raistlin met up with an Idra. Must be from another novel?

This trilogy bored me to death as a kid

The greatest life lesson, that i never learned, is that Fireball (gigantic ball of awesome) is not always the right answer.

I read it like 30 years ago and I don’t remember much of it. But I do remember it looked good on my shelf 🙂

I still watch... don't always post... us "adam's" have to stick together.. lol... science double ended joke.. lol.. stupid I know... I loved the new "Ghostbusters" movie with her corny jokes. Oh, I saw a Google post on Drizzt DoUrden possible movie/series.. but the big problem was dark elf skin color... it's segregational/racial/species border line stuff... with todays super charged environment, it might hit bad like Bud Light. Different dark elves were different skin colors, pretty simple.. Asian is Asian, American is American, Black is Black... still ALL just people. but, it's easy to offend. Ogres and goblins come in different colors??? "Den of Theives" new D&D last movie... was not bad. but it's hard to make a "adventure" movie that is "unexpected" ... when you pretty much know what to expect. But, it's hard to beat a good dragon entrance... more Balrog in the new Lord of the Rings series... Rings of Power. With the "tone" of Christopher Walken on SNL... "More Cow Bell"... I need more cow bell... LOL. now switch it to I need more Balrog... more Balrog I tell ya. Hope I made you smile :)

His not the most powerful. Not by far. Raistiln is.
