I've been wanting to make some YouTube videos to highlight some of the 800+ homebrews I've made to a wider audience/community, and to give people a way to get to know me a little as a player/DM/creator/human. I also wanted to give more exposure to other homebrew creators out there that aren't well known.

After quite a bit of trial and error, I was finally able to finish a full video and get it posted. Making this was definitely a learning process on the production side:

lighting (amount, "temperature", angles)

camera qualities (wife's phone camera is so much better than mine)

background sound reduction (don't bother while kids are home or anyone else is awake)

video software (learn it, then figure out why audio wasn't working)

patience (waiting for time to record, for permission to feature others' content, for videos to transfer, for editing the process, for video rendering, for uploading...)

I don't know how many people will want to watch me talk just talking about the thoughts and inspiration behind various homebrews, but I'm thinking it will be more than one.

This video is 27 minutes long. Later ones I make will be shorter, because I don't plan on featuring a dozen subclasses at a time.

The video starts with what happened as I was about to begin recording for the very first time: my chair was stolen before I could sit down. It ends with the video software messing up the formatting of a list of patrons during final rendering.

Here's the direct YouTube link (for those that would like to share this with others): https://youtu.be/lHOQWjkoJDQ

Happy Halloween, all.

12 Dragon Subclasses, 1 Dragon, 2 Halloween Treats - D&D Homebrew Highlights - The Amethyst Dragon

A little video with a D&D content creator, highlighting 5e homebrew content. I share my thoughts and the inspiration behind homebrews made by myself (The Amethyst Dragon) and others. Today's video highlights 12 dragon-related subclasses, one for every base class (except sorcerers, those lucky folks got one right away). I made these prior to the new Fizban's Treasury of Dragons book (which only has 2 subclasses in the entire book). This video also showcases the Galekite, a lower-level sea dragon creature created by redditor u/DeckofJockersGames. It wraps up with a couple of Halloween treats: a monster/villain/NPC and a cursed mask. You can find links to everything right here. u/DeckofJokersGames: - Galekite (monster): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QvAuz6Jubfa3Rgmh9zFr3_WMtwAB4Vc7/view The Amethyst Dragon: The Grand List of Homebrew Content: http://www.amethyst-dragon.com/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheAmethystDragon - Halloween Treats - - Headless Horse Man (monster) https://www.patreon.com/posts/43298836 - - Mask of the Wolfman (magic item) https://www.patreon.com/posts/57077362 - Dragon Subclasses - - Dragonforger (artificer) (*free*) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56757322 - - Path of the Scaletaker (barbarian) https://www.patreon.com/posts/55720614 - - College of Dragonsong (bard) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56516105 - - Dragon Domain (cleric) (*free*) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56653399 - - Circle of the Wyrms (druid) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56407992 - - Dragon of the Word (fighter) https://www.patreon.com/posts/55846519 - - Way of the T'ien Lung (monk) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56301191 - - Oath of the Wyrmsworn (paladin) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56138548 - - Dragonblooded (ranger) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56207481 - - Hoard Finder (rogue) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56004723 - - The Dragon (warlock) (*free*) https://www.patreon.com/posts/32616208 - - School of Dragonspeakers (wizard) https://www.patreon.com/posts/56076070 Video Jumps: 0:00 Introductions 1:35 Why 12 subclasses? 2:19 Artificer - Dragonforger 4:06 Barbarian - Path of the Scaletaker 4:59 Bard - College of Dragonsong 6:16 Cleric - Dragon Domain 7:34 Druid - Circle of the Wyrms 8:40 Fighter - Dragon of the Word 9:45 Monk - Way of the T'ien Lung 11:09 Paladin - Oath of the Wyrmsworn 11:48 Ranger - Dragonblooded 13:19 Rogue - Hoard Finder 15:31 Warlock - The Dragon 16:13 Wizard - School of Dragonspeakers 19:31 Galekite (monster) by DeckofJokersGames 22:15 Halloween - Headless Horse Man 24:53 Halloween - Mask of the Wolfman 25:48 Wrapping Up
