      The other Races are either VERY new (2018) or very obscure. Thankfully they are thematically similar enough to ride Aasimar/Tiefling coattails and get a video!

      Yeah. Ganzi were back in 2015. They were in the Distant Shores book. It was only a Campaign Setting of rare and exotic locations your party might never see, so yeah: Obscure.

    At 15:24, I imagine the "furry" one is just a joke, but if it's not, what would be the real name of the evil outsiders that lead to that?

    • @VentureCaptains
      @VentureCaptains  Před 5 lety +20

      That's a Tiefling descended from a Rakshasa, which are evil outsiders with strong ties to the material plane. they mostly resemble half-man, half tigers.

    Honestly, after finding out that Tieflings and Assimar in Pathfinder can be descended from ANY celestial /fiend ancestry, I don't think I can ever go back to their D&D iteration. Being descended exclusively from devils, who's only noticeable difference is which of the Nine Hells they trace their lineage to made Tieflings BORING to me. But in Pathfinder, I have a wide range of options to choose from. Rakshasa spawn = FURRY TIEFLINGS!

      It was a visual gag mostly. As far as I am aware we don't have any half-outsiders that are part psychopomp and the Duskwalkers dont directly descend from them, but I agree that a half psychopomp would make a badass NPC.

    Great video. But . . .
    One of the labels is wrong at 05:11 -- Peri-blooded aren't Perytons. Perytons exist, but are something entirely different, that most often isn't very friendly: www.aonprd.com/MonsterDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Peryton
    @17:05 -- missing Qlippoth-spawn. Also, what's "Furry"?

      Sorry for taking so long to reply! its been a crazy month for us.
      1) That's correct! honest mistake on the labeling here, but thanks for pointing it out! I'll try to fix it with an annotation
      2) we did indeed miss qlippoth spawn. This is really embarrasing because we had the image ready to go! In fact one of the parts of the script we cut is how qlippoth spawn tends to result in childbirth deaths for the poor mothers, so I can't believe we missed this.

    Pathfinder has a lot of different evil demon/devil like monsters - but I've never understood the purpose of the Demodands.

    • @VentureCaptains
      @VentureCaptains  Před 5 lety +3

      Ray: it was a consistent issue during writing that I brought up with our editor Anri. pathfinder makes a distinction between many terms that are used interchangeably in other media. (like devil/demon being different species) it can make things rather complex and in my own opinion, probably more so than is warranted.

    • @VentureCaptains
      @VentureCaptains  Před 5 lety +6

      Anri: Hey there! sorry for the late reply. Ray already commented on the logistics of multiple evil outsider races, but about the purpose of the Demodands themselves, they were supposed to fit in the titans myth part of pathfinder. About how the first creation of the gods were Titans (Elysian and Thanatotic) and some of these wanted to be worshipped as the gods themselves were.
      In lore, the purpose of the Demodands is to show the arrogance of the Thanatotic titans, that they thought they were on par wit the gods but the only life they could create was wretched and foul. It's about giving an in-lore justification for why they are not quite deities.
      From a GM standpoint the Demodands exist because you need minor flunkies for your Titan-Slayer campaign, or else it becomes eeriely similiar to the "Go slay that Demon Lord" campaign you ran last month. While I have never personally felt the need to run any such campaign, I can't deny that greek myths are cool and there's a lot of people who would find that fun to play.
      In a metagame sense they exist because having some fiends that are adept at killing divine casters is pretty cool. And of course there's the nvelty factor that they are not made from human souls, unlike other fiends the demodands breed. Ever wanted to present the players with the connondrumof killing a baby demon? well, demons cannot be babies, but Demodands can!
      While I agree that they are pretty niche and most GM's wont ever use them, we could say the same about all the robot enemies, the Kytons, etc. They only really fit one kind of niche campaign, but if you need them you have them!
