    "The badassness isn't shortened It's distilled." Hahahaha love it. I'm glad you also mentioned the Duergar. My sorcerer ran into one at the beginning of his campaign in the Underdark. She was an exile who joined forces with him and helped him survive long enough to develop his abilities and meet the other future party members. Sadly she died very early on though. So much potential lost. But her sacrifice allowed so much shit to be set in motion for the larger narrative.

    I must confess I have a really hard time imagining a dwarf as a main protagonist in any fantasy media. I'm just too used to them being the gruff/snarky companion type of character. Never played a dwarf, probably won't in this either. (How can you resist githyanki?) Props to all you fellas giving the little dudes a moment in the limelight in your playthroughs though.

That tends to be my take when I play them. Where as when I am more diplomatic when I play humans, when the dwarf comes out...lines in the stone get drawn.

    Playing a dwarven life domain cleric now. Pretty annoyed I have no proficiency in Great Axes & Large Hammers. I can use a 2 handed battle axe in 1 hand with a shield in the other, but I have absolutely no proficiency with anything above. I'm not super familiar with DND rules, but I assumed I was generally targeting those weapons by playing as the dwarf in the first place. Simple weapon proficiency alone feels janky with the build.

    Wolf Why don't you make a video about Character Creation where you create a character that your may be able to use in early access or final game, you could do it in the classic D&D Character Sheet or in D&D Beyond, an official digital toolset for D&D 5e. Is super easy to use but the problem is that you have to buy the Player's Handbook (or other books) on d&d beyond to be able to use their subclasses, subraces, Backgrounds, etc or only use the Basic Rules. An alternative is if you want, I can share you my content that I all ready buy by a feature that d&d beyond have. Therefore you can make characters with the content of the Player's Handbook and Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes where are the Gith and the Tiefling Subraces. Thanks for today video.
