Pathfinder Lore - Alkenstar

[@eyeofthetager]

Recently got into PF2e and your channel has been great in expanding on the large amount of lore for the system

[@mattd7695]

Awesome video as always 👌, just got the impossible lands book and loved this city. Golarian is for sure the Disneyland of fantasy settings. Something for everyone. Hope you're having a nice day whoever is reading this 😊

[@SirVertigo]

I will say, for visuals alone, Alkenstar has been my favorite video so far! I love the setting of Alkenstar!

Great channel. I subscribe to several for P2E. Your content, specifically, we play as the gamers arrive to the Tuesday night table. These vids not only help to set a proper mood, but can also help to increase our players' narrative power. Great immersion. Great channel.

[@SirVertigo]

Thank you! That's actually really nice to hear. I want to make these videos so that a gm or player can listen and learn about a region that's relevant for their game, because the more lifelike or the more you know of your area, the better you can roleplay within it!

[@LoganBurwell]

thanks man i didnt know i needed to know about Alkenstar until now! good stuff mate!

[@BloodRedRook]

Woo! Alkenstar. I've been waiting for this one. Thanks, it was great :)

[@Myrdraall]

Thank you so much. Preparing to run Outlaws as a first campaign and this is great information.

[@krisrobinson3787]

Very informative. The squid hands in the AI art make me chuckle when I think about mutants being persecuted in this city state. Thanks either way lol

[@SirVertigo]

That sounds like anti mutant slander! We support that here! Lol

[@drifter331]

iv been running outlaws of Alkenstar 2e its so much damn fun!

[@thetoweroftomes]

Great video man! I like how your videos have your personal touch and mood :) Keep it up!

[@randallbaumgardt3424]

Thank you for another awesome video

[@ashy6019]

wonderful video :). What AI image generator do you use? it looks so good

[@SirVertigo]

I use the midjourny discord bot! Its a monthly fee to use, but it's had the besf results for me personally so far, and I love it!

[@cernunnos_lives]

Well China made our worlds first guns to repel the Mongols. It was the only real way they were able to. From there it only took 40 years for Spain to be making her own improved rifles and gunner tactics.

[@bewitchedadventures4977]

The video just skips around in places like it just got erased or recorded over but otherwise it has good information. Thanks. :)

[@JohnnyOrc]

I'm here for more Geb lore. Bestest nation!

[@SirVertigo]

Geb will get the spotlight soon! Working my way through the impossible lands!

[@Dramon8888]

Is The Screw just a giant Archimedes Screw Pump? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes%27_screw

[@SirVertigo]

After reading the wiki, it may be? It would explain how the ships can make it up the cliff to the river, but at the same time, how are people able to set up businesses on the screw? I do believe it may be an archimedes screw now that you've put a name to!

[@Dramon8888]

@@SirVertigo I assume the businesses are in the borders of the Screw, and the center is where the ships pass through.

[@robfrank3423]

Have you ever tried pathfinder for savage worlds?

[@SirVertigo]

I have not! There's a copy of both savage worlds and the pathfinder variant at my local game store, and I've been eyeing it for a while! I want to try it, I just have a decent backlog of books to go over as is lol

[@robfrank3423]

@SirVertigo according to my friends, savage pathfinder let's you have all the fun of regular pathfinder but cuts the time of compat encounters by to 25% the time taken in regular pathfinder

[@Hespi.]

Guys, can i watch this if I am gonna play Outlaws of Alkenstar as a player

[@SirVertigo]

This overview should be as spoiler free as I could make it. I didn't cover any adventure specific information from the Adventure path, and made sure I did not reveal any large secrets that are revealed later on in the adventure. That said, I have not been able to play Outlaws of Alkenstar, so I cannot guarantee no spoilers, but I did my best to make sure it was a good primer for players as well as Game Masters.

[@Hespi.]

Thanks!@@SirVertigo

[@ruttzorz]

So many weird AI generated hands.

[@SirVertigo]

Shhh, we don't look at the hands lol

[@upsidely]

Great video, can’t say I’m happy about the AI art use though. It directly steals from and damages artists that are a big part of the hobby your channel is all about.
