Neither of those reasons at the start. Merely looking to gobble up all your wonderful intel and regurgitate it in my game.<br><br>Love the vids my friend and thanks for educating us all with your scholarly lore dives!

I actually really like this format because it introduces a bunch of different topics to delve into more at the viewer's discretion.

Good to have my thoughts validated that Storm King’s Thunder is a better Sword Coast guide than the SCAG haha, awesome video! :)

I love the thought of an all powerful skeletal litch living at the bottom of the ocean cuz he cant swim back up. lol<br>Edit: LOL i feel like my DM would squint at me if i used the sphere of annihilation one. He just had a prophesized ever growing sphere of annihilation in his game and we, the players, were so clueless as to how to stop that we let it get so big that our DM literally had to redraw the continent map and change world events. We still havent stopped bringing chaos into this world by trying to save it. This is only the beginning lololol

I ran a game in the Moonshae Isles using some of the AL products and set most of the Ghosts of Saltmarsh locations there. This is a great region for some political intrigues if your players are into that. You have the Amnian colony of Snowdown, the Alaron kings trying to reclaim all of Moonshae Isles, the Northlanders (basically vikings), and I added a custom pirate faction from the Nelanther Isles (which has a lot of pirates in actual lore). All the other islands are either populated by monsters, or semi-independent villages, towns, and such (including two dwarven strongholds). You can have players explore all the sides, this powderkeg situation where war is coming and everyone knows it, and have them pick sides. Bonus points if you have players from different origins who have different point of views which can make inter-party banters interesting. Once the party gets strong enough, whether due to character levels or amassing a fleet of ships (you get a few sea battles in Ghosts of Saltmarsh and could capture enemy ships), factions might reach out to hire them or get them on their side. They may even get conflicting missions.<br><br>You can also throw in the plot hook about the Storm Maiden which, if she reappears and returns to the Northlanders, could spark civil war there to make the political situation worse. Of course, Kazgorath showing up while this is all happening can also be fun (Clerics of Malar or Druids of Malar performing dark rituals that you must stop?), or throw more powder into this powderkeg. Throw in Baldur's Gate and other factions around Amn if you want to explore the geopolitics and loop in the Sword Coast and the Lands of Intrigue.
