D&D Legends and Lore

None can win the war with death, but losing the war does not mean the combatants have seen their last battle. Warriors who wish to fight beyond the limitations of flesh and blood can seek a forbidden way to steal their souls from fate. The cost of this immortality is death, but the fearless few who pay this price become death’s allies. Indeed, death bestows power upon them. Their fleshless bones clad in skins of armor, their brittle fingers clasping weapons with a grip of iron, these knights of death take command of their souls and their destinies. When they charge from the shadowy afterlife into the lands of the living, death knights ride to wage war upon life itself.

Deep beneath the surface world lies a realm of darkness, danger, and betrayal. Although many races claim it as their home, the sinister drow claim to be its rulers. With arrogance that few can manage, the drow lord over their slaves, scheming and plotting behind the backs of their kin. Despite their sense of superiority, the drow fear one thing: their dark goddess Lolth, Queen of Spiders. Check out our sponsor Tabletone!

The horrors the Abyss disgorges are without number, and no limit restricts the disquieting forms that its spawn, demons, can take. Easily the most disgusting master to claim dominion over the tainted host is the creature known as Juiblex, He Who Slithers, the Unnameable One, Glistener, Indescribable Darkness, and Slick of Foulest Humors.

In the sinister land of Thay, scheming mages called Red Wizards dominate a society steeped in magic and deceit. Those without magical or economic power are at the mercy of these fascist mages, who harshly punish any who defy them. The truth is that the Red Wizards are a threat to all of Faerun, held back by the Simbul and Rashemen and their own disorganization. Those who know Thay realize that it is the Red Wizards' own lack of a coherent structure and their refusal to combine forces that keeps them from conquering the rest of Toril. But there is one among them who wishes to change this. Thay is also infamous as the home of Szass Tam, the dread lich who seeks to rule this nation and turn those who oppose him into undead minions.

Tavern tales across sunlit lands whisper of the Underdark, a lightless, subterranean realm that is home to fabled races and ancient, unspeakable evil. It is a domain of primeval mysteries and unending war, a hidden world of cruel masters and hopeless slaves, filled with monstrous creatures that were old before humans were born. Aboleths. Beholders. Mind Flayers. Eldritch entities of unspeakable visage. And yet, despite the potentially greater danger posed by these and other horrors of the deep, it is the Drow that might well be the most notorious of all the Underdark races. These most dreaded of underdark dwellers were once part of the community of elves that still roam the world's forests. Now these dark elves inhabit black caves and winding tunnels under the earth, where they make dire plans against the people that still walk beneath the sun, on the surface of the green earth.

In Dungeons and Dragons, a monster is defined as any creature that can be interacted with and potentially fought and killed. Even something as harmless as a frog or as benevolent as a unicorn is a monster by this definition. An obstacle to overcome. An interactable entity to fill in an imaginary world. And sometimes, a monster is a metaphor. But one monster, more than any other, represents the awe and terror humanity can feel before the forces of nature. It represents the inevitability of every person, society, and culture's ultimate futility against the eternity of time and and the insignificance of our power, ambition, or potential. The inevitable end and our inability to stop that end from coming. I am of course speaking of the Tarrasque. The greatest of all monsters.

Asmodeus. The Archfiend. The overlord of all the dukes of hell. He is a primal embodiment of lawful evil and a supreme strategist of unparalleled skill. He alone commands all devilkind and reigns as the undisputed master of the Nine Hells. Even the deities that call that plane home pay Asmodeus a great deal of respect. His sinister machinations may take centuries, if not millennia, to come to fruition. His master plans extend across universes. And his labyrinthine, insidious intrigues are inexplicable to most outside observers, for Asmodeus lets even his own servants stew in fear of his next move.

A demon princes’ arrogance is exceeded only by their ambition. One such demon prince is an insidious presence that worms into mortal hearts and minds, and deceives them into turning away from righteousness to embrace brutality. This agent of destruction is Baphomet, known as the Prince of Beasts, the Trampler, the Minotaur Lord, and the Horned King. Born from the churning chaos of the Abyss near the dawn of time, Baphomet is the embodiment of savagery, one of nature’s most destructive aspects, and the catalyst that looses the beast residing in us all.

To feel the thunder of orcish war drums outside the gate and to hear a chorus of voices growling, “Gruumsh!” is the nightmare of many human, dwarf, and elven settlements in the world.

The first gnolls arose from hyenas that fed on flesh tainted by the Abyss. Their corruption and violence delighted the demon lord Yeenoghu, who encouraged their numbers and spread them across the multiverse. Ever since, gnolls have been the cackling servants of Yeenoghu, existing to cause ruin and to feast on what remains. Feral, demon-worshiping marauders, gnolls attack communities along the borderlands without warning and slaughter without mercy, all in the name of the demon lord Yeenoghu.

Created as soldiers for a war that spelled the end of an age, warforged are artificial beings that display a humanoid level of intelligence and self-awareness.

Krakens. They rule the mightiest kingdoms, lightless trenches of crushing pressures where the sun never touches, unreachable seas that writhe in anger, jagged depths under sheer black cliffs. Their home is alien, elemental, and unforgiving. And here they are masters. Cruel geniuses possessing vast strength, they wait in the dark, weaving their plots, slowly considering their next abomination, their next move in an endless evil game of vast complexity. Not merely hulking mindless brutes nor cathedrals of flesh given fury, but sadists, torturers, and unspeakable terrors, thinking goliaths of calculating hate. Check out our sponsor Tabletone!

With the dying of the light, the howls of wolves and shrieks of raven swarms echo through the dismal valleys and wicked souls slip from the darkened spires of Castle Ravenloft to work the will of an immortal overlord.

Although scores, perhaps hundreds, of dragons are remembered in the myths and the legendary histories of the mortal world, only a handful of sages know the truth and breadth of the most noble and powerful of all Metallic Dragons. He is Bahamut. And he stands at the forefront among those gods who champion good. Communities founded on principles of justice, equality, and virtue include the Platinum Dragon in their prayers. Mortals do not choose to serve the Platinum Dragon; they are called. Wherever injustices hold sway, Bahamut identifies worthy champions and summons them to fight in his name. He is the lord of good dragons. His scales are shining platinum. His breath is both the radiant justice that burns the unholy and the merciful light that heals those in need. He is nobility and justice personified. He is ancient and wise, curious and benevolent, fierce and authoritative.

Know thy enemy is a basic tenant of strategists and adventurers alike. And any who wish to survive the world of dungeons and dragons ought to follow such proven advice. For in a world wrought with monsters both ancient and powerful, knowledge can be the key to survival. Knowing how a creature thinks, understanding its motivations, fears, and weaknesses can be the difference between life and death for an adventurer. Perhaps that is what makes the Beholder so deadly and terrifying.Few things in the multiverse are as hyper-intelligent, megalomaniacal, sociopathic, and abjectly insane as a Beholder.

The young, the romantic, and the adventurous might follow the whistling wind between tall trunks, across deer paths, and down steep valleys until all at once the wood shifts, and high on a forested hill now stands a bright metropolis, its crystal towers glittering as brightly as starlight. Radiant eladrin with shining eyes and silver-spun hair stride gracefully through the city's idyllic streets, and nymphs frolic like children beneath hanging gardens and fruit trees. Fair maidens with eyes the color of meadow violets sing the wind's song note for note, and their voices float through the wood like silver embers. As dusk settles on the eladrin city, pixies rise quietly from the forest floor, trailing golden stardust in their wake. On gossamer wings they paint the sunset across the sky in colors known only to the hearts of dreamers, poets, and lovers. …Welcome to the Feywild Support us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PATREON⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ We are also on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join our…

Ogres, considered as selfish raiders and hulking gluttons, spawned of hateful supernatural forces by many of the humanoid peoples of the worlds of D&D. From dismal ruins and bleak hinterlands, they raid vulnerable communities and ambush travelers. Ogres covet food and treasure, and they spitefully destroy art, books, clockwork devices, and other delicate or lovingly made things. Occasionally they kidnap victims to eat later or, more rarely, performers who catch their interest.

They are believed by some to be the first and eldest of all races. They are the wisdom of ages and the grace of elegance. They are the Tel Quessir, the Fair Folk, and the People of the Morning. They are Moondancers and Mist Chasers, Sleepless, Wild, Enchanted, Refined. And yet they are as fatally flawed as any other people. Prone to haughty arrogance and prideful isolationism. The elves of D&D are a people defined by the dichotomy of their very being.

Owlbears are terrifying, nocturnal predators that inhabit the forests of the world and the Feywild, where they hunt to satisfy their voracious appetites. Their haunting cries echo through valleys and across plains, warning to travelers that they are on the prowl. Infamous for their unfettered and violent ferocity, and their distinctive half-bear, half-owl appearance, the Owlbear is a one-of-a-kind monster.

Amongst the most powerful and highest esteemed of his children is Tiamat the Dragon Queen, the chief deity of evil dragonkind. She is the evil goddess of wealth, greed, and envy. She is the patron of chromatic dragons and those whose lust for wealth overrides any other goal or concern. She dwells on Avernus, the first layer of the Nine Hells, but her envious eyes are ever drawn to worlds of the material plane… Support us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PATREON⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ We are also on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get your copy of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Starseekers' Guide to Draken Star⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

The Prince of Demons, the Sibilant Beast, and Master of the Spiraling Depths, Demogorgon is the embodiment of chaos, madness, and destruction, seeking to corrupt all that is good and undermine order in the multiverse, to see everything dragged howling into the infinite depths of the Abyss.

The Shadowfell is an overlapping or echo of the Material Plane in much the same way as the Feywild. But it is not a lush and verdant hunting ground like the Feywild, nor Is it the tumultuous battleground of the Elemental Chaos.

Where the illithids came from, why they choose to live in eternal darkness beneath the earth, what they seek, why they take such delight in cruelty and horror—these questions have stymied sages for centuries.

This week Will and Omar cover the Lore of the Githyanki. The githyanki plunder countless worlds from the decks of their astral vessels and the backs of red dragons. Feathers, beads, gems, and precious metals decorate their armor and weapons — the legendary silver swords with which they cut through their foes. Since winning their freedom from the mind flayers, the githyanki have become ruthless conquerors under the rulership of their dread lich-queen, Vlaakith.

In this episode, William and Omar talk about the Yuan-Ti. Throughout recorded history, the humanoids of D&D have feared the Yuan-ti—those sentient snake folk whose cultures, magic, weapons, cities, and visible accomplishments rival those of humanoids. Fireside terror tales tell of slithering death, unblinking eyes, and fangs in the night, and a few even hint at the serpentfolks’ fell plans to enslave all other races and breed them like cattle. Some people scoff at such talk, but the wisest sages warn that these fears have a solid foundation.

This episode, William and Omar talk about Kobolds. Kobolds are often characterized as squalid, diminutive reptiles on par with the likes of goblins or worse. Malicious, but of little actual menace. Their small stature, reptilian appearance, and often subterranean dwellings contribute to the image of them as vermin or lesser creatures. While some might grudgingly acknowledge their cunning in trap-making and mining, the prevailing view of kobolds is one of a cowardly, resentful, and ultimately hostile species.

On this D&D Legends and Lore, William Stark and Omar Timsah cover the lore of Orcus the Demon Prince of Undeath. Though all demon lords would plunge the cosmos into eternal darkness and death should they ever be given the opportunity, few if any among the Lords of the Abyss strike horror and fear into the hearts of mortals more starkly than Orcus, the Demon Prince of Undeath.

On this D&D Legends and Lore, William Stark and Omar Timsah cover the lore of Devils. Evil comes in many forms. The power hungry ambition of the Lich. The tyrannical, megalomania of the Beholder. The calamitous destruction of the demon. But perhaps no evil is as insidious and wicked as the evil that calls itself “Friend”. Since the earliest days of D&D, devils have loomed large among the mightiest opponents an adventurer can face. Not only for their dangerous and violent nature, which is on par with that of any Devil, Dragon, or Aberration. But for their unrivaled ability to prey on and exploit the most defenseless part of any person be they mighty or meek.

Many tales warn of dwarves who delve too deep. Few end well. In the days of old Delzoun, Clan Battlehammer carved its stronghold into the heart of Mithril Hall, a kingdom of wealth and power. But in their ceaseless digging, they tore open a rift—a doorway to the Shadowfell. And waiting on the other side was a nightmare as black as pitch, as hateful as sin.

On this D&D Legends and Lore, William Stark and Omar Timsah cover the Origins of the Abyss. The Abyss is an enticing enigma within the lore of Dungeons and Dragons. Its depths unknowable. It’s animus inscrutable. A festering malignancy upon the very fiber of existence. The abyss is nihility made real. The call of the abyss has driven many a D&D character mad as they attempt to understand the plane of Chaos and Evil incarnate. And though no consensus as to its origins has ever been reached.
