Who is Lolth, God of Spiders? (w/Jorphdan) | Forgotten Realms Lore

Flesh and Blood Lore when?

can we see Bahamut (grandmaster of flowers) and his evil twin sister Tiamat next?

Sick

I'm enjoying this lore videos even if I dont play D&D. Would be nice if you cover all the legendaries of the set.

Spiders are gross, but Drow are cool. Also, Lolth is as kind to her priestesses and faithful as MtG is to its fans. Wouldn't be my first choice of a divine patron.

Another good-ish aligned Drow is One Eyed Jax/Jaraxle. He's your mercenary type spymaster for the Drow on the surface of Faerun.

Sound fades out for about 30 seconds or so toward the end.

There's a lot of hubbub around Lolth recently due to the Exandria thing on Critical Role so this was probably good timing.

For non-native speakers as myself, these are lore + pronunciation lessons, it's like BOGO haha

Was always curious about who Lolth was. Thanks for covering them :D

Thanks for the great content, mate. Keep on keeping on

The video is great but the audio cuts near the 3/4 mark, just a heads up!

Good stuff right here!

🧝‍♀️🕷

Great video lover 😘

Lolth! She is currently tormenting the critical role cast with an ash hole.

I love your lore videos. I was here before you swapped to Trick Room and swapped back. Take care and thank you for the vids

Lolth was the final big bad in my first D&D campaign. She was also the only Mythic I pulled in any of my boosters so far. I figured I might as well build a deck around her.

*Their consort

Correllon does not conform to mortal gender norms.

Im Hoping for a Wulfgar video. Good job on this one!

I love these cross overs. I would be awesome if there was a crossover video comparing the dragons of MTG to the dragons of DND. Like Ugin, and Nicol Bolas VS Bahamut, and Tiamat.

Hey Hubby, they gave out a one shot forgotten Realms booklet at my pre-release. Would be cool if you & Jorphdan did some sort of "guid" tutorial like video for how to get started or what you still need besides that booklet ect. and btw keep it up man good job

I’m really enjoying the content thanks

If I ever get a lolth, I'm going to get it altered so that it has the lol face

Another good aligned Drow is every Drow PC ever. Nowadays, I haven't met a single Dungeon Master who plays the Drow as all evil. Specially when, like Tieflings, they are hot, and as such, the bi disaster kids like myself wanna play them.
Back to the Drow though, I specially like how Matthew Mercer handled them, in Critical Role. Spoilers, I guess, for the second campaign, but at first, the drow are portrayed as all evil. But that's because the party simply lives in a country that's at war with the drow, and it isn't until they get to the drow country where they are like "Huh, they are pretty nice." Shoutout to my boy Essek while we are at it.

I play D&D, but since I started in 3rd edition I never learned much about Forgotten Realms as that edition was set in Greyhawk. These are really cool and helpful videos. Thank you!

She has such a seemingly happy name... as in she LOL-th at the drowsy drow.

Jorphdon is actually Elminster, in this material plane.

They got some Game of Thrones going on with those gods and their families 😁.

That elminster isn't a planeswalker is crazy

One of my players has severe arachnophobia and doesn’t deal well with even the mere mention of spiders. He does however have no issues with scorpions (even though technically arachnids). Therefore I reskinned Lolth to a scorpion queen.

Love the video! Big fan of MtG and FR. Loving this crossover! I did pull a Lolth PW. I like the card. It’s nice. I would have liked the ultimate to pack a bit more of a punch given its Lolth. Small complaint though 😁

Jordan should do Dragonlance Lore!!!

Share this right now!!!!!

In my last campaign, my Yuan-Ti god character killed and ate Lloth.

There was a great thread on the forums back in the day which had the "Gods Of The Mirrorverse." Like the Star Trek episode "Mirror Mirror" it's the universe of everyone's Evil counterpart (unless they were evil in which case they're good.) In the Mirrorverse Loth might be the Spider Goddess of the Drow Resistance to the Lawful Evil Elvish Reich, with webs representing communications networks.

So glad I pulled a full art lloth.

That’s just the story of Satan and the fallen angels. Pretty lame 😒

:)

Is Lolth also a demon lord since she defeated the previous demon lord of the endless web? I watched Jorphdans video and he said she separated the endless web from the abyss as a separate realm but i wonder if perhaps she holds any demonic influence.

Lolth and Corellon had THREE children not two. The eldest daughter didn't get banished and never joined the dark seldarine.

Currently doing a run of BG3 with a Lolth-sworn Drow sorcerer as my MC 👌
