If you are in a dark cave using Darkvision to see, you are unable to make out colors. So, you have to look for physical characteristics that can be made out in shades of gray. Tentacles from the face are pretty good as far as that is concerned.

@Alex Davies By the time you can see his shades of grey he can see you. Gold dragons have darkvision to 120ft, however, normal darkvision only goes to 60. You would need to extend your darkvision beyond 120 ft for it to matter either way. Also, you could see his whiskers at 60ft as long as you can see his face.

@Alex Davies actually no, it wouldnt be that easy You could compare colours, but for it to be effective you would need to hold both the coin and the dragon closely so that different in light (in this case, lack of it) could make misjudge something. And even in dark, is hard to sepparate things like silver and copper or gold apart. Aside that, it depends on the age. Gold dragons dont simple shine, they are a bright yellow when they are born, but old dragons would have all their bodies covered in mettalic tones. With the sun or fire brightening it, he would look shiny as the sun itself, but in the dark, he would just appear as a dragon Just like a house cat or a tiger, who can be bright orange, but when they are hunting at night you are simply unable to say something other than "they arent black/ they have some light colour"

Imagine having a toothbrush literally built into your face. Gold dragons really do live their best life.

Gotta try them all that's, what what their mama used to say

I have an interesting concept: A gold dragon that shares a mostly abandoned castle with a lich now the reason the gold dragon shares the castle is because 1. The lich occupied the castle first and 2. The lich is morally good Now one of the interesting things is that the lich is still a necromancer and he throws parties that last for years at a time wich annoys the gold dragon sometimes to the point of leaving just so that he can sleep and that literal army of undead partygoers mainly just keeps growing to the point that most of his undead allies have free will

As someone who is branching into dming instead of only playing, I love how in depth and interesting these videos are. Thank you for doing them, please do more! You have a talent for this, for sure! My favorite dragon so far has been the bronze dragon, I find them very interesting! I would love to put one in a campaign.

Nice video. My favorite Gold Dragon was one I placed as a shop-keeper (gem dealer) in one of my towns. She was there for an obscure reason of her own which I never fully wrote up, but she made an interesting patron for my players, and an occasional fatal encounter for a few very foolish thieves...

Now I'm thinking about a gold dragon plucking a stuck diamond out of its teeth with its whiskers.

A couple of Gold Dragons debating ethics and philosophy while disguised as mortals would be an excellent way at solving the "DM is going to bring their new significant other to the table who has never played before" scenario. That way the new player could come with an NPC who challenges the new player, only stepping in when the new player is significantly failing.

These dragon videos have all been great, I've been running a campaign that gas a very heavy focus around dragon and having the extra insight that isn't always covered in the core book has been really useful to flesh out the dragon characters.

I actually love taking inspiration from Shadowrun when it comes to polymorph and dragons, which helps to answer the conundrum of: "Why would a superpowerful creature NOT be in a small form if it could retain all its powers?" And the answer, because it would become vulnerable. A 50ft dragon might be able to walk through normal doors and corridors or pass amongst the local populace while polymorphed as a human, but because of this, the dragon would also be much more vulnerable and weaker in this form. They could be killed much the same way as any human could. Polymorph and form changing seems to be in overabundance in DND much like Darkvision, and I enjoy giving creatures a valid reason to stay in their original forms without looking like fools.

@Kahtisemo

4 жыл бұрын

I don't know about Shadowrun but I remember seeing somewhere that because Polymorph works differently for Gold Dragons, they retain all their stats. I found this while trying to make a character who was really a Dragon in disguise and saw that and it led to the joke of while with the party he would pretend to get knocked out way sooner than he would for legitimately (because if he loses consciousness for real he'd revert to his true form) and after a bit the cleric seemed to catch on that he was faking his injuries but assumed he was just being a coward. So it lead to the hilarity of her getting aggressive in fixing him up to a point of her telling him to "suck it up, butter cup" and showing the others he's fine. Maybe I misread it, but I found it funny. You'd think someone might have been tipped off sooner since his name was "Gil"

I like Silvers the most, mostly as a mixture of visuals and because some odd things about them scream 'good dragon' to me. The gold dragon is also like that, but it's more Eastern design sort of made that a default thing to me, while the Silver is much more clearly a Western dragon but also still clearly a noble being. That they serve as a direct rival to the Red Dragon, the most powerful of the Chromatic dragons also helps there.

I remember reading once that the whiskers on a dragon were a sensory organ: like ground penetrating sonar; they are used to help find suitable locations for the dragon to make its lair. Then again, I don't remember if the source was from a Wizards book. I will comment with a citation if I come across the book a bit later.

Once you brought up their mating habits, you reminded me of the time my character in the last campaign I was a part of had to scare off a gold Dragon. Earlier, my character had accidentally got himself married to a silver dragon. The silver Dragon decided she liked my character enough that she wanted to stick with him after they sorted things out. However, a gold Dragon who had set his sights on my wife wasn't too happy about this arrangement and decided to pester us until my character had enough and proceeded to beat the ever-living daylights out of the jerk. This almost started a war between the gold and silver dragons until Bahamut the Platinum Dragon stepped in and told everyone to chill and the gold Dragon who started this mess to lay off, or he would let my character hunt him down, kill him, and eat him. That part was more of a bluff than anything since that would have gone against my alignment. But hey, it worked.

To be honest I've always been a huge fan of white dragons, used them a lot in some stores/campaigns here and there. My favorite of yours was a dragon I often ignored, the copper dragon which I'm now incorporating into my next project/campaign, loved your video and learning about em.

This ties in AMAZINGLY WITH MY CAMPAIGN! YESSSSS!

I'd love to be able to play a campaign under you as a DM you have so much lore knowledge it's insane to be able to see you put it all in action

I 100% loved the Copper dragon video my man! I love the Copper dragon themselves even more because of that video, I'm not good at making up jokes so I'd be terrible at portraying one but hearing they love to pull pranks and outwit and humiliate their foe in combat gave me so many ideas for trying to and generally liked how that video was somehow shorter then this one but felt a bit longer, maybe because I was engrossed and had to pause to laugh at some of the things you described them trying to do in the middle of a fight.

I an delighted by all these videos! I particularly like the behaviour descriptions and how the raise(dont dont raise) their children. My personal favourite dragons is the white dragons and I am super excited to see you cover them as I want to learn more about them!

I certainly think if a gold dragon sees you commit a moral failing a crime or whatever it will cast suitable judgment upon ya. one of my pcs was a young gold dragon who was tasked by her parents to kill a bandit horde who were attacking and killing travellers and villagers she being an avid reader was taken with the idea of adventure, good and morality being grey she opted for pacifism, and rather than kill the bandits she tried to talk to them her parents saw this and had to intervene to stop her getting hurt, but they weren’t happy with her they were furious they saw this as a chaotic act going against their wisdom and the law so they polymorphed her and stuck her in Dragonborn form, she wandered the world and became a paladin but that’s a different story, I do think gold dragons are extremely lawful, I think all dragons are either extremely lawful or chaotic with their acts of good and evil being very alien to us as they think through those lizard brains of theirs and they should be role played accordingly, they can commit great good or great evil but it’s always through that dragon lense,

Honestly I find myself waiting for these videos to come out, keep up the great content.

My actual question going into this video: Where do gold dragons get their hordes from? It's gotta come from somewhere, right? Do they hire themselves out explicitly as dragons, clashing with their tendency to remain in disguise? Do they keep the ill-gotten gains of bandits and villains despite any protests to the contrary? Or does every gold dragon have a dark and terrible past of looting and bloodshed that it keeps hidden at all costs? Add this heedless and globally organized gold-dragon-mafia with collective control over vast sums of wealth and hordes of magic items into the picture and it seems reeeeaal sketchy to me.

They seek out adventure as polymorphed entities and hoard the treasure and rewards they acquire to help fund their wizard study. Or they set themselves up as the benevolent overlords of humanoid society, acquiring wealth by taxes and tributes from their subjects.

Red dragon is my favorite as I play assassin more often than not, basically stealth is a pretty useful skill for scouting, damage, getting past foes I would never be capable of fighting myself, pickpocket (way easier while sneaking), and uses Dex which is kinda great how the class relies on that one stat allowing me to focus on it more- bad if diseased but that is what the cleric is for. Reason why that my favorite dragon is red is because a gold would not help a neutral/evil character, a red dragon though is admittedly hard to convince to work with you but that is what meat and treasure are for. Basically one session I managed to barely yoink a red dragons egg and managed to form a bond with the hatchling discussing strategy and feeding him- basically when old and durable enough he can attack others out of the blue and while he deals with the tanky barbarians, clerics, etc. I deal with the other rogues and go directly for mages and then join on his end where we basically clean up shop. Our teams mage even got him some 1st-2nd level spells. That was a very fun campaign.

It would be awesome if u could do tiamat and bahamuth in the future! Love your D&D videos! Keep up the amazing work!

That Todd Lockwood art of the gold dragon in the Monster Manual 3E/3.5E is one of my favorites. I had to buy the Huge Gold Dragon mini from the Giants of Legend set separately since it was so hard to get randomly.

But the 2nd edition Monster Manual has great details. I would love to see a video about the Steel Dragons even if they may not be canon. They are much smaller than a typical dragon and they are very rare compared to other dragons. I also like the idea of how they prefer to live in cities, mostly Human dominated cities. Just an Idea.

I used to play d&d along time ago, and your analysis of this RPG is great!

So Gold dragons don't have a dark secret like other metallic dragons ?

On a serious note, if there is any flaw that I tended to see in descriptions is that gold dragons tend to think that they know better than their lessers. 4e's Draconomicon: Metallic Dragons (a good source overall if you need a more moraly ambiguous take on a metallic) says that gold dragons can grow tyrannical or distant in their rule over mortals, and mentions Edarmirrik, a gold dragon demigod with portfolio of exactly that. Another example would be Mengkare of Pathinder's default setting of Golarion; seeing humans as pitiful and broken by the world, he created the island kingdom of Hermea where he tries to bring the human potential to maximum in his "Glorious Endevaor" with education, magic, and eugenics. Even the setting creators are not sure if he can be considered evil or not.

​@@KalaamNozalys I guess that in gold dragons it is the most visible and dangerous amongst metallics. Brasses and coppers are tricksters, bronzes are warriors, Silvers are paladins, and other metallics are even weirder. While they can assume possitions of leadership, they do so rarer than golds, the sages and rulers, who also tend to lord over much larger expanses when they do so.

THANK YOU! for telling me about the resplendent. You gave me an epic quest Idea where the party's gold dragon friend gets framed, stands trial, and all of them get rapped up in an assassination plot.

Your videos are awesome! Keep it up!

I love the idea of an adventuring party being invited into a gold dragons house and most of the items in there horde are non-magical works of art and when the players ask why it has so many of them it says something like "gold and gemstones maybe beautiful, but these works of art represent the value of hard work, the passion of those who dedicate there life to creating works of art, and the imagination and creativity possessed by beings of all walks of life, to me, that is far more valuable than any amount of gold or precious gemstones."

I absolutely adore gold dragons. I have ever since first perusing through my friends collection of D&D 3.0 and 3.5 books. The way they look, the way they act, everything about them to me is amazing. In the homebrew campaign setting I have been working on for the better part of 20 years and have run multiple times, one of the most powerful creatures the PCs eventually encounter is a brilliant and playfully mischevious Great Wyrm Gold Dragon named Kalyik. Ive probably written more about Kalyik than anyone would ever want to know, but everyone who meets him ends up loving him, I think because hes so fleshed out in my mind as a character that hes very real. So thanks for giving me a few tidbits that I didnt know about golds to add to his back story!

Thanks for your videos, it's helped me put a lot more personality into my games

Loved this video! I can't wait for the next one!!!!!!

Best dragon video (Black dragon). My favorite dragon you have covered and enjoyed learning about (Copper Dragon)

I have to hand it to you, the whiskers thing was pretty dang funny..! Silly but hilarious!

Can't wait for the next video, really like these vids. As for my favourite dragon up to now, probably the blue dragon, don't know why, but always like lawful evil creatures/characters. The best video is hard to say, since they are very similar in format and structure, which is definitely a bad thing since the structure is really well done.

Todd Lockwood’s artwork pretty much shaped my interest in fantasy to be something permanent. Prior to my exposure to his work, I was nothing more than just a filthy casual...

Another fantastic video brother Rhexx

Incredible video dude 👌, so far my own personal fav is the blue dragon video , by personal favorite dragon , well it is a template added to a dragon , shadow , other one would be the not so strong deep dragon

WOOO new dragons video from the Rhexx!

This series has given me an idea for an NPC: a chromatic dragon who isn’t evil and makes their lair near a town, but seven miles away so the town doesn’t need to deal with the dragon’s magical effects on the area. They’ve perhaps even made friends with the town, maybe acting as a guard in exchange for food and items for their hoard. The party just so happens to see someone take a cart toward the obviously hazardous territory of the dragon, the border of which is only a mile away.

Take a shot every time he says “What the monster Manuel doesn’t tell you”. How drunk are you?

My favorite dragons would probably be the crystal dragons, just cant recall what ones i loved the most. found them while working on my evil druid litch campaign.

OMG I LOVE these Dragon Lore vids...Like I how the monster manual is supposed to be all the info on the monsters but it's not...but especially Dragons like I had no idea there was so much vital info and secrets the Monster Manual simply doesn't tell u...and its fantastic seriously I LOVE Dragons and as such I love these DND lore vids the most...and WOW I gotta say Gold Dragons are officially my most personal favorite metallic...Now I really can't wait to see the secrets on Green Dragons because thats my most personal favorite Dragon in DND because they're such awesome campaign villains since they're masterminds and green is my favorite color so again awesome video and I can't for more.

@MrRhexx can we do two more: a platinum dragon vid and a dragon god series? thank you for all your work we very much enjoy what you do
