  • Will and Brian continue onward with the Year of the Dragon, and this time it's another evil chromatic. Black Dragons are vile and vicious in their own right, despite the drop in physical power compared to other different colored rivals. Find out what makes them dangerously unique this week on The Dungeoncast!

    I've always imagined black dragons having the body type of like a puma or panther, just giant and scaly.

    My respect for you guys has grown even more, hearing that you've watched adventure time.

    I’m not sure where I heard this, but Im pretty sure a green dragon wouldn’t actually come into contact with a black dragon in a jungle because greens don’t like jungles in the first place. It is much too hot, dark, and moist for the green dragon to actually enjoy the smells and sights of a jungle forest. They prefer a much colder and more temperate environment than they do jungles because of how much they enjoy the smell of the forest. I’m not sure if i’m wrong, but please feel free to fact check me if i am

      No you've hit the nail on the head, they enjoy the changing of the seasons in a forest and you do find green dragon in the jungle, it is either a young one in search of a proper home or was kicked out by a more powerful dragon

    I think mangroves would an ideal place for black and blue dragons to clash.

    I have to fight a black dragon later on in my campaign so this was really helpful to get me prepared

    My homebrew legendary action on black dragons is move half speed and stealth. Also give them the ability to stealth in dim light and expertise/proficiency in stealth. Players freak out when massive black dragon step back into the darkness or slides into the water and hides.

    I've also done the animated breath weapon as like a blob monster from that movie The Blob where the dragon vomits up a certain size animated acid blob and it goes around doing the dragons bidding.

    And you didn't even get to the part where they kill their food, then let it rot in fouled water to get the right taste before they eat it.

    I homebrewed some Mossy looking Tree humanoids and called them mosslings. While fighting through a ruined castle in a bog, fighting all different types my players were terrified when piercing yellow eyes glared at them through the murky depths and lunged out snatching the barbarian in it's Jaws pulling him under... The party literally started panicking it was amazing!!

    • @sea_triscuit7980
      @sea_triscuit7980 Před 3 lety +2

      What ended up happening was the barbarian was able to shake himself free somehow with a strength saving throw and grab onto the horns of the black dragon, riding it to the surface, it was honestly one of the most badass things one of my players has ever done

  • @nickabsent958
    @nickabsent958 Před 5 lety +2

    Yes! Favorite time on sundays!

  • @MySerpentine
    @MySerpentine Před 2 lety +1

    Blacks are my favorite D&D dragons I think. Aside from maybe some of the planar ones nobody remembers.

  • @aqure9
    @aqure9 Před 5 lety +4

    So do Black Dragons have like a rancid smell or ooze bog water? Giving them constant swamp ass?
    Edit: Nevermind you guys explained the bog ass

    The first time I ever encountered a black dragon in any way was Onyx from Dragons of Autumn Twighlight. I believe her dragon name was Khisanth.

    Dragon going melee with antimagic field cast on themselves is fun... for a DM.

    Nice more dragon lore!!! Even if the dragon in question is repulsive...

    • @charlottewalnut3118

      Zevran08 Grey Dragons are best they spit sticky stuff and are spiky and copy voices and have bat ears. Oh and they eat sentients as normal.

  • @dorianrobinette9712
    @dorianrobinette9712 Před 5 lety +2

    I had an idea for an episode for the year of the Dragon. I know one of the editions has lore about a primordial named asgorath that created Dragon kind. from what little I've seen it seems like the various creation myths for dragons are pretty conflicting so I was thinking maybe you guys at some point could do an episode talking about all the different creation myths for dragons. or maybe a deities and demigods for asgorath. just an idea not sure if you've gone into detail about any of this before so if you have just ignore me I guess.

  • @lukastunis1229

    Been looking forward to this

  • @jamesembry4921
    @jamesembry4921 Před 5 lety +5

    To me Black Dragosn are the most likely dragons to have e a tourture chamber in their lair. I had always played to the sadistic side of these guys.

  • @dorianrobinette9712
    @dorianrobinette9712 Před 5 lety +4

    yes! another Dragon episode! lovin the year of the dragon! hey any chance you guys plan to do a dracolich episode? I'm borderline obsessed with dragons an undead,lichs in particular so as I'm sure you can imagine that'd be a good episode imo lol.

    • @Thedungeoncast
      @Thedungeoncast  Před 5 lety +1

      We will. Probably this year.

    • @dorianrobinette9712

    What? Blue dragons and black dragon in Louisiana bayou? What exactly would draw the blue dragon? Blue dragons like deserts.

  • @DoWhatNowQuestionmark
    @DoWhatNowQuestionmark Před 4 lety +1

    In regards to magic there is a feat called Innate Magic which is just that! So even the game creators understood these things happen and players would want it.

    I seriously can't find the link for the artist on Fiver in the description. I don't know if I'm failing my literacy check or what?

  • @jacobwilliams4088

    If you read the book Life of Pi the movie the floating island that where the water turns at night to acid compound and the plants around it eat everything I made that into a nighttime legendary action

    @HeroOfTheWeb Před 4 lety +1

    Good video. My suggestion would be to try to say “like” a little less. It’s extremely common now for everyone and I have to talk a bit slower to not overuse the word myself.

  • @GodwinXZ
    @GodwinXZ Před 2 lety

    So it’s your fault they changed the stat blocks of spell casters. Shame on you!
