Turns out Wiz Character Profiles is pretty popular... So enjoy another one, this time based around Morganthe!
Thanks for all the support! - Zábava
I’ve gotten the chance to talk with some of the story developers in ≈ 2021-2022 and unfortunately they said that at the moment they don’t have any plans to bring back Morganthe but they are completely open to the idea because they hear that that is a big request
That's cool, I'm excited on where they go with Dasign and the philosophy angle they went with in Novus.
It’s interesting how Morganthe believed herself to be the Shadow Queen, but misinterpreted the prophecy to be about her, when it was actually about Grandfather Spider (Old Cob)
Yo you can't assume her gender like that. It's 2023, she can be the spider king if she wants to be. That was a joke, love the comment!
I feel that one of the reasons we were allowed to walk so freely in Khrysalis without Morganthe basically obliterating us or getting directly alerted by her "barrier", is because in her final dialogue in the dungeon she says "I forget myself a queen should not act so basely, such a threat is beneath me especially now on the eve of my victory". She knew her actions against us were weak, but is such an egocentric narcissist that she thought that she eventually would be able to pop us off 1v1 once she learned the song of creation as we traversed the world. What she didn't realize was our fast-paced agility to resolve problems and creep into her kingdom + she had no idea Old Cob was even a thing let alone know how to destroy her entirely, nor did she care tbh, without Old Cob we would've failed.
She also overestimated how strong that glass floor was :D But yea i get what you're saying.
@@GodlySeafood Absolutely! I just feel the devs came short as to find a way to defeat her since she basically had the song of creation almost mastered... Basically she would've won essentially lol
I like how you can take any character and make almost an hour of a documentary of them keep up the good work
Thanks, to be honest, I feel like 10 minutes of morganthe was just bad pacing by me, but I'm getting better :D
@@GodlySeafood Well I can't wait to see what you come up with next
Morganthe is easily the darkest main antagonist of the game. No redeeming qualities, her minions are incredibly vicious, some of which eat humans, and for the first time, the bad guys are saying “KILL!/DIE!”, which was a game changer for me, because I thought the game was going to go with “defeat” throughout the worlds. Then again, the “Never Say Die” trope is a discredited trope now.
100%, arc 3+ is all morality stuff while arc 1 just was sadness and depression and desperation, while arc 2 just wanted the spiral to themselves and will do absolutely anything to get it
Khrysalis’ badges even mention that the Wizard has to resort to killing the minions and insects, not just merely defeating them. That one word change in the badges makes the entire world of Khrysalis much more darker and implies the minions are willing to kill the Wizard even if it means fighting to the death. The fact it’s been nearly 8 years and the badge descriptions have not been changed to ‘defeat’ makes many people think the word ‘kill’ is intentional.
@@BuckBlazikenThis is really dark. Most of time we just defeat enemies
i think part of the reason morganthe's barrier doesn't detect us in khrysalis but it can detect the council of light is because we have both light and shadow within us while the council of light are all-good entities. when it's just us, it's easier to confuse our level of light and shadow with any of the tribes living in khrysalis already
Makes sense. We become both light and shadow when we go to face off with the storm Titan . Kind of foreshadowing the Wizard becoming the divine paradox.
We didn’t have shadow pre-Khrysalis
In my opinion it's just like Malistire getting yeeted into space by a big rock, So i want Morganthe to come back as a dungeon and we get a harder and true final battle
Oh yea, it would totally help elivate her character and make for a nostaglic dungeon/fight.
She’s totally coming back one of these years.
darkmoor 2 but with morganthe
I think the writers originally wanted Malistaire to stay dead, but devs wanted to amp up the story in an unnecessary way that brought back Malistaire from the dead. The writers were not too happy with this so as far as we know no other villains are ever coming back from the dead.
total headcanon, the Shadow Tree agreed to help Morganthe achieve her goal because shadow magic had been disgraced and essentially outlawed by the council of light across most of the spiral because it can easily be used for dark and nefarious purposes; Morganthe offered the Shadow Tree an opportunity to restore shadow magic to its former glory and influence, which, being a scion of shadow magic itself, the Tree was all on board for
Aye, thanks for that. Not gonna lie, I feel like I completely skipped over that due to the shadow tree only being relevant for like a quest or two. I should have looked into the dialog for more of the lore but it was so forgettable that I didn't even remember it being a thing. Not saying that it's not worth knowing, just that it's easily missable. I'm going to have to update the video and add that at some point.
@@GodlySeafood bah like i said, i was just stating a possibility, i dont remember the exact reasoning either
@@arturwillow9108 After looking it up, it turns out that morganthe expended a ton of magical energy with the whole xibalba fiasco, and to keep the power from crushing her, she created the shadow tree Moros as a type of arcane brase. Moros is basically Morganthes version of Bartleby kind of in a way that Bartleby helped grand mammy raven create the spiral. Not a bad theory tho, If nothing else I could see your explanation totally being a lore plot point instead.
@@GodlySeafood ooh okay
@@GodlySeafood he did seem twisted and unnatural, makes sense that he's a creation of Morganthe
even better video than last time. i admire all the text details and whatnot but your explanations are detailed enough to have an audio only experience. very good content and I'm glad its doing well for your channel 👑
Ahhh this vid is perfect and made me appreciate the arc 2 storyline way more! Also loved your description of gamma murdering malory and mirror lake. found the origins of spells like shrike so interesting. Keep up the content :)
Thanks, I feel like the main story should consist of more deep lore and encounters with the main bosses rather than some lazy country bumkin in the middle of nowhere requiring us to fight a bandit for the millionth time before we can progress. I know less about allot of the interesting characters in wiz than I know about little timmy who fell down a well and has more lines in the story line than the end boss of an entire arc.
@@GodlySeafood so true😂😂😂
Yayyy you uploaded another one of these!! I watched the Abrose one and couldnt wait till the next one 😁
Thanks! I wasn't sure how well people would like these lore type videos but I'm glad you did. Let me know if there's anyone you'd wanna see a character profile on in the future!
Morganth my favorite character arc
Here's an idea: History of all the Realms of the Spiral
Way ahead of ya. After making the malistaire video, I've been reading up on some dragonspyre lore for a dragonspyre profile video :D
Great video!
Great video!! Would love to see more wizard 101 lore dives
Thanks, I got more coming in the next week or so!
I’m surprised you did Morganthe before malistaire. Morganthe has a more interesting story as a character imo but overall I prefer the story of arc one as a whole. I also like malistaire as a nostalgic figure
I feel you there, I'll always be a sucker for Arc 1. Honestly I was questing through avalon on my myth playthrough so I wanted to do one that I already had video for. However once I get to darkmoor I plan to do one on malistaire. I may do someone else before him just in case tho, I quest slow and farm allot haha
Really well-thought out video, keep it up :)
Thanks a bunch for the support, I got more stuff coming in the next few weeks!
dude i know you only have 26 subs but I can tell you're gonna be popular very soon. I loved every bit of your merle ambrose backstory video, and this video was just as good. Keep uploading content; you are so entertaining to watch!:)
Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate that! It might be like 3 weeks before the next character profile but I definitely wanna make a full series out of it. It's been allot of fun. Let me know if you have any suggestions on stuff you wanna see in the future, and thanks for the support!
She looks so beautiful.
she does
First the Wizard101 iceberg video, and now this video pops up in my algorithm. It’s like CZcamss telling me to hop back on this game 6 years later. Beautiful video man. Wizard101 lore has always been underrated to me and this game will have some special place in my heart
lol thanks, i've seen that iceberg video pop in my recommended but haven't watched it yet. I just happen to start making lore type videos a few weeks ago haha
yes it popped up yesterday for me too and then this video and i couldn’t resist and logged in the game after all these years. best feeling
Legitimately great video. You're quite eloquent :)
Thanks, I've got more on the way!
Ahh Morganthe my beloved 😩
Jokes aside good video i like, malistaire and old cob next
40 minute wizard101 video?! Im in heaven
If you like this type of content, I've got good news for you, I plan to make more just like this with about the same duration. :D If you were being sarcastic, I've got bad news for you... lol
@@GodlySeafood no sarcasm here!! excited for more stuff
I can fix her
ong bro
You know if ki actually gave the player the opportunity to join the shadow queen I would have forsaken merle Ambrose and the 7 schools of magic and joined her to see how the storyline changes not to mention being the apprentice of the umbra queen would have been LEGENDARY yet dark
wizard101, but we help a grieving widow on his quest to bring back his wife, then we join a broken woman to help get her life back together... and take over the world. We'll call it Wizard102
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
loved the video! I do wish that Morganthe got a proper conclusion, felt so unsatisfying compared to Malistaire
Thanks, I hope they bring Morganthe back but have it be like a philosophical type thing they're doing with Dasign right now. I think it would be awesome!
@@GodlySeafood I would love to see her again, they can definitely try doing something about her. I'm particularly interested in her parallel with the player character; a child prodigy of Ambrose and learning shadow magic. Idk how they would tackle it, but it would be interesting to see explored if they did so
Ah Gamma, the R2-D2 of Wizard101.
Tbh I usually skip all the story and now I regret it because of how you laid it out. Nice work man! I can tell you’re really passionate about this!
This was like the best thing to watch while I washed the dishes I can’t wait to get a new pc to play the newest world
Should 100% make a discord servwr
Novus was a pretty good world. The new spell systems are interesting and KI did a great job with the philosophical undertone throughout the world!
3:23 fire elf women 😫😫😫😫
Morganthe reminds me of Orochimaru and Merle Ambrose is the Third Hokage
me when the police man knocks on my door with a warrant to search: 9:07
All i'm saying is that Arc 2 wouldn't have happened had merle had been a bit too late.
morgan the
The fact that she hated us all because she failed to master sun, Star, and moon magic and we were able to successfully master all three with little effort.
rip Kondha forest
Morganthe listened to a smokey the bear commercial and interpreted it the wrong way. "only YOU can prevent forest fires"
@@GodlySeafood no forest --> no forest fires? hMmMmMmMmM
39:55 not song of creation level but morganthe is glass floor level 😔 these types of plot points are so lame but the humor makes it funny at least
she IS my wife youre so right
Wait wasn’t Zafaria morganthes home world?
From what the lore implies, morganthe was originally from avalon. Her and Mallory grew up in dundara village. However she did decide to make a stronghold in Zafaria at one point. I guess her old stronghold is the palace in mirror lake or something. The lore doesn't specify on when that was though.
I mean, Malister was kind of hight in killing Monganth, if he had done so most of the bullshit in the game would not have happened. Like, yeah it is king of messed up to kill her, but the girl was a psycho and a danger to the universe.
Good video overall but I really think it would be an easier watch if you cut out the bits you stopped speaking for a second and a half
Thanks! Yea this was like one of the first videos I ever did where I was cutting audio and stuff in a longer video format. Eventually I want to go back and redo it because I've gotten a little bit better haha. But yea the pausing is pretty bad lol
All she wanted to do was learn some cooler spells
That "dumb name," Nergal, was a Mesopotamian god. If spelled Nurgle, it's one of the four Chaos Demon Lords.
Does Morganthes spider form have wings? Or is that a cape?
I could see it going either way. When I look at a picture of spider morganthe, it initially looks like wings, but it's hard to tell. It could go either way.
